Spring Break (St Olaf, IA & Minneapolis, MN)

On the 25th we started towards North Dakota for Amy Tanner's (formerly
known as Amy Barber) wedding. We stopped in St Olaf, IA to see my Gramma and
Granddaddy Hoover.











Here is the cabin where they live. There was an eagle sitting above their creek when we left on
Saturday morning.


We also spent a couple hours in Minneapolis on Saturday afternoon. We met
up with some friends and went to some art museums. The Walker was
closed for expansion so we went to the Weisman (a Frank Gehry
building) and to the Minneapolis
Institute of Art.
After the museums we went to a Tibetan/Nepali
restaurant called Everest on Grand. It's on Grand St in St. Paul. They have tasty yak dumplings. The
yak are free range and grass fed of course.







Another cool place in Minneapolis is Bob's
Java Hut. It is a biker coffee shop. The whole front of the store opens
to the outside and motorcycles are often parked out front. It also has
free wireless internet.






We drove around for awhile because I couldn't
remember where it was. So I took a picture.
