Random Craziness on the Road

A Little Whimsy

Minneapolis, MN- August 7

Warming my hands on a bull dung fire. Davis
carefully carried 15 odd dried dung patties from
the wild bull in the woods so we could see how
they'd burn. Ummm, now that smells great.

Having lived for over 40 years with the hassle of the
Steamship Authority for the ferry to Martha's Vineyard, I laughed
 out loud at the FREE ferry services in Canada where the
employees are friendly, you get in line on the spot
and drive on 10 minutes later.

Stop traffic for buffalo. It's a beautiful sight.

Walking through the beautiful park north of Duluth, I couldn't
figure out why EVERYONE was on their cell phones.
Rolling my eyes I walked on. When I returned to that same spot
again, everyone was on their cell phone. Asking a couple of
women whether this was a wi-fi hot spot or something, I learned
that they were all playing a Pokemon game that was linked to
the park. This was Duluth's way of getting kids outside
and walking around. And the two older women loved it, too!

It feels like everywhere I go Hawaii is there.
This airbnb stay ended up being in the 'aloha
suite- absolutely covered with Hawaii
memorabilia. And the hosts had wonderful
aloha spirit.

Bozeman Montana was having a live concert on a
Wednesday morning. The community came out with pleasure.
Including this very patriotic poodle.

Babe the Blue Ox was toppled in a thunder, lightening and wind storm that rocked my little Prius, too. Babe was nearby
in Brainerd, Minnesota, while I was at Lake Itasca. She was back up and proud a day later.
