That's what we did over our July 4th weekend. What about yours?
That's lake harriet, i presume. We were totally there part of the 4th--and the day before might i add! Swimming, ice cream, a little bandshell concert, a sweet trolley ride--the whole shebang! Though i must say when i was younger that trolley felt like it lasted 30mins--only to realize it's actually about 10mins! My girls loved it brought back great memories for my sister and i! Our grade school was just blocks away from lake harriet. Our end of the year picnic was held there every year...and soon as the weather got warm our teachers packed us up and held classes at the rock gardens--oh the joys of hippie teachers! :)
