Gorgeous scene. I love the colorful buildings and that historic-looking church is beautiful.

Downtown Red Wing, Minnesota. One of the oldest cities in the state. It's right on the Mississippi River and was a huge grain shipping port at one time.
Also known for its pottery.

For a second I thought it was a little town near me. I photographed it like that once, from the top of a hill. Lovely shot, Casey!

An oldie: Jill in a horse show riding . . . I can't figure out which horse from this picture. Either Kahlua, one of our Morgans, or Scheherezade ("Baby"), the Hanoverian.

Ron, Redwing left a good impression on my daughter who traveled through there in 1988 on a cross country bicycle trip. She talked about how pretty and well kept it was so much that 10 years later when DH and I were tracing her bicycle route by motorcycle, we made it a point to spend a couple days there. She was right...lovely town, and friendly people.

Oops--I didn't see Ron's when I posted. Minnesota has a charm all its own. Seems to me I remember Red Wing shoes. Probably from the same place?

Here's another state park picture.

Casey and Ron...love the city shots!
Alisande...I would love to watch that.
Bigack...that looks so peaceful.

Here is an officer from a sheriff's office in Utah. This was taken at the K9 Trials, here in Las Vegas on Sunday. I think he is an undercover officer.

Another rose today....

Susan, yup, Red Wing shoes are made there, too. I have an uncle that worked 40+ years in the tannery that made the leather for Red Wing shoes. The area has some bluffs so you can get some spectacular views of the city. It's the very beginning of the driftless area in southeastern Minn. Bigbaby and I live about a half an hour away.

Beautiful rose, Kathy, is it Tropicana?
I like the fixer upper, Moni.

It sure is Ron....such a lovely orange shade and it smells wonderful..........
