I had had a tough time last week staying positive. Self pity is a lonely party. In the midst of my wallowing fellow campers invited us to join them at a local cafe to listen to some traditional fiddle tunes. I jumped at the chance, Bob said “sure, anything to get her out of this mood”, so off we went. The musicians are from Scandinavia, Vidar Skrede, from Norway and Topi Korhonen, from Finland. They were wonderful! I danced in my seat the whole time. I hope they can make some connections on the east coast. Here is a link to Vidar’s youtube page. https://www.youtube.com/user/vidarskrede. I have not found any good links to Topi’s music. I borrowed this picture from the Stillwater Gazette.
We spent the weekend puttering, reading and sightseeing. We finally stopped at a local park and took these pictures of an egret and cormorant roost.
It was time to leave Delagoon campground, they have a maximum stay and we had used it up, and moved back toward Battle Lake to a brand new campground. Unlike every other one we have seen it is not next to a lake, but in the middle of rolling farm country. It is beautiful. Here’s a picture.
Tomorrow we are headed to Itasca State Park to see the headwaters of the Mississippi.
Sleep tight loved ones!
So you’re on the road again??
Nope. Parts due Friday (fingers crossed) installed on Monday (toes crossed) on the road Tuesday (dreaming).
