Tour Guide



I have been very busy since getting back from San Francisco. My friend, Aimee, flew in from Salt Lake City the same night my mom and I flew back in from San Francisco. On Monday we visited the Mall of America in Minneapolis, Minnesota. (that is mostly why Aimee came to visit!) Tuesday, I took Aimee fishing and then played softball. Today, I took Aimee and Elijah(nephew) to Camp Five. I blogged about that place a while back when my sister, mom, niece and I went. It is way cool. Basically, you ride a real steam train to the logging camp museum. At Camp Five you can pet animals at the petting zoo, visit the logging museum, buy stuff at the gift shop and tour the logging woods. I totally turn back into a kid at the petting zoo. Today's adventure was a baby goat eating my pants. So funny and cute. After the adventures at Camp Five, Aimee and I went to the Merrill Fair in Merrill, Wisconsin(Duh!) and partook of some fair food. My favorites were the fried cheese curds, there is just nothing like fried cheese, and the elephant ear(it is not a real elephant's ear, silly, it is fried bread similar to a scone with cinnamon sugar on the top). My arteries are clogging as I type, but the food was fab. Now I must sleep because we are going back to Minneapolis tomorrow morning to hit the mall again and then Aimee flies out Friday Morning. I have had quite the two weeks. I will leave with mom and dad on Saturday for a family adventure in Northern Wisconsin. I am a busy girl. SIGH! Sorry for not writing much about SF, but I have been busy. Maybe when I am bored again next week, I will tell you all about it!

Alice I MISS THE FOOD. If I ever came back to WI to visit it would be for the food. Well and all the old friends.

Rita, Rita, I love the pics! Sounds like your summer has been one grand adventure after another. Utah is going to seem very tame and dare I say boring? Even so we'll love to have you back. Keep the adventures going and the pics coming!
