Northfield, Mn

The last bank Jessie James Robbed.

I went to Northfield this morning with my friend Julie. She belongs to a Mayflower club, everyone has ancestors that came over on the Mayflower. I had to explain that even though I have two ancestors that came on the boat, I can't prove it because I don't have a birth certificate for myself! I'm really not a joiner anyway, so it's for the best.

They were discussing Northfield today and Julie knows what a addict I am for Minnesota history and invited me to come with her.

It's always sad to see abandoned ancestors in an antique shop.

I wanted this! It's a fireplace insert. I think it looks like a little couch.

Cannon River.

There are all these cool passageways to walk through.

They don't make them like this anymore.

So tempting! Fresh rye bread and coffee cakes.

Another walkway.

If you wear green you're an outcast!

There are always strange things on the way to little towns.


Apparently Cannon River is very exciting.
