Bemidji Minnesota

We drove over to Bemidji and spent the weekend just relaxing.

On Monday we drove to Lake Itasca to tour the State Park there. The lake was beautiful in the morning and the view was wonderful.

We drove along the lake to the headwaters of the Mississippi River. Here the mighty Mississippi starts it way to the Gulf of Mexico.






As a good tourist I had to walk across the Mississippi so this is to prove I did it.






We took a couple of hikes along the lake before heading back to Bemidji and dinner with a Classmate that I started 1st grade with in 1952. A super day all in all.

Tuesday was errand day and Paul Bunyan and Babe the blue ox was on the list. All visitors are required to visit the statue.
Wednesday it was off to Medora, North Dakota
