We arrived in Grand Rapids, MN to view the Judy Garland home and museum. This destination was Eric's choice, the Wizard of Oz is his favorite movie and Judy Garland is one of his very favorite celebrities (along with Liza Minnelli and Madonna). The home was great - restored to it's original state (it had been moved from another site), and the memorabilia was fun.
and of course, we saw this photo op and knew we couldn't pass it up!
Minnesota is also famous for it's Paul Bunyan and Babe the Big Blue Ox roadside attractions, and this became our theme for the next part of our trip:
I downloaded an app called TimerCam and we can set the camera for about a 15 second timer so we can all get into place and ready - it makes a loud beep on the last 3 seconds. We started getting pretty invested in making our pics look even more fabulous!
And also: we have been collecting these flattened pennies with the stamping of local sites, and we kept that up for this trip. Here are some of our pennies from this trip:
