I (art) Medicine Lake

I'm still too tired to write much about our whirlwind trip to MN to visit Erin and check out her shanty, so I'll post some pictures and make some lists.

Things I did on a frozen lake for the first time
1. Decorated and mailed a postcard
2. Petted some dogs
3. Watched a play
4. Ate a hot dog, drank cocoa
5. Watched bicycle races
6. Used a porta-potty
7. Talked with several of Erin's friends
8. Watched an art car parade
9. Read people's confessions
10. Stood on top of a (faux) surfacing submarine
11. Warmed up in a building made of old wine refrigerators
12. Watched a slide show of aerial photography through goggles
13. Had my picture taken in a shanty

Places we ate
1. The Grand Cafe - best meal I've had in years
2. Butter Bakery Cafe - mmmm

Other notes
1. Best bathroom doors in a hotel
2. Easiest trip around the Twin Cities - thank you Garmin!
3. Best welcome home - thank you Jen and Drew!
4. Worst pictures of eagles I've ever taken - they look like gnats - and the video is even worse
