Sept. 17, 2011 - We drove the car back to the Mississippi River headwaters after a breakfast of applesauce pancakes. It was the first time I stirred homemade applesauce into the pancake batter; it was really good. There were a lot of people at the headwaters this morning. I’m so glad we had the place to ourselves last night. The river is higher than normal, so there wasn’t a place to plant our feet on each side of the water. We saw the Mississippi River several more times as we headed east on Highway 2. It is a long and winding river...
We stopped in Grand Rapids, MN to take a few photos for a friend of ours who lives in Sequim. She was raised there 80 years ago. It was fun for us to get out of the RV and walk the downtown streets. We discovered an old school that has been turned into a museum and shops. Judy Garland was also born in Grand Rapids and there is memorabilia about her.
We’re spending the night in an RV park near Saginaw, Minnesota. It got dark here by 7:30 pm. Yikes, is Fall on the way?
