From 2.21.26-2.24.26 my father, sister and I drove from Chicago, IL to Sax-Zim Bog and back. This is from Day 2.
Today, we met my Grandmother in Saint Paul and had a fun time driving around the Twin Cities, seeing diverse fungi and fauna, and having interesting conversations. I learned a lot about grandma's life in Minneapolis. I was grateful to meet with my much-loved Grandmother.

More posts from this trip coming soon.
