Celina's 1/2 Marathon, Hot Cider Hustle.

 We all went to cheer on Celina and Mady run the 1/2 marathon in Bloomington. 

















I hope it was a record!!

 We rode the light rail from MOA to Mpls. That was a great idea to get to downtown! $4 each which was a great deal considering we didn't have to deal with finding parking! 

We arrived right at the protest area as the light rail dropped us off sooo close by in Mpls near the US bank Stadium. 

Made our posters. 

Stood around and read others signs and took in all the costumes. 

Some better then others!


Two of my favorite signs of the day!

The protesters!! 


After the walk started to move, very slowly... we decided we'd been there long enough and left to get food and drinks along the way home on the light rail.

Kansas City, MO!!

 The three of us had a nice time in Kansas City Mo and Kansas City Kansas. 

Logan was able to join us this last weekend of nice weather 80's of camping. 

We camped at Smithville Mo park right next to the water. The campground wasn't  very busy since it was October which was nice! Large camping area too. 110 was our spot for future reference. 

The lake/ reserve 

We saw skunk, deer, raccoons and heard owls, and coyote. We also had a large praying mantis on our tent top that changed color from bright green to gray/brown.
