Echo of Joy

Weekly beauty: Mississippi River

Friday, May 20, 2011

As I mentioned yesterday, I recently attended a retreat in Eau Claire with my supervisor, and we had a lovely time winding our way through the countryside of southeast Minnesota and west-central Wisconsin. The weather was perfect and the scenery was gorgeous. Check out some of the highlights of our trek along the Mississippi River and enjoy the beauty!


On the way there, we grabbed some lunch at Smokey Row Cafe in Red Wing and ate it at Levee Park.







And on the way back, we stopped at a couple different overlooks to soak in the river view.













It was breathtaking and rejuvenating.
