Lots Done on Vacation Week

All last week, CJ and I were on vacation near Park Rapids, MN at my parents' cabin. With a week off, I was able to work on my 101 things.

First, CJ and I went on a bike ride on the Heartland Trail with friends. It was an 11 mile ride, and that goes toward my 1000 miles.

Also toward my 1000 miles were a couple hikes, including one at Itasca State Park. One more park toward my 20.

Itasca State Park has a huge Minnesota Tourist Attraction: the start of the Mississippi.
That's one more tourist attraction for the year, and a very cool spot. CJ and Jeff walked across the Mississippi, but my batteries died on my camera at that moment.

Another great tourist attraction we visited was one of the huge Paul Bunyon statutes in the state.
Pretty cool, right?

Additionally, I drank a few new beers and two new wines. I failed to eat a meatless meal last week. And I read two books. All pretty good.
