As has been the tradition for 5 years now, I went away for a Girls Weekend with some dear friends from high school and college. This year we drove down to southeast Minnesota for a weekend of biking and relaxation along the Root River Trail. We stayed at a B & B (the Coffee Street Inn) in Lanesboro, MN. It was wonderful. We enjoyed being able to relax right outside our rooms and have a glass of wine or a beer before heading out for the evening...however, getting the wine bottle open was not always that easy (see picture of Katie for testament of that fact).
Friday night we hit a local restaurant that overlooked the Root River. We all enjoyed some wonderful food along with great wine. Saturday we biked the Root River Trail from Lanesboro to Preston. Preston wasn't much to speak of, so Lisa and Katie continued on to Harmony (they wanted hills). Tracy and I were not in the mood for hills, so we biked back to Lanesboro and relaxed until the other two returned. Saturday night we hit the local pub. What a riot that was. We got our order in for pizza at the place next door to the pub just under the wire. Then we enjoyed people watching, pizza and beer throughout the evening. There was a guy there who looked remarkably like Orn...the killer was when this guy got up on a chair to dance. Can't really see Orn doing that anytime soon! Sunday we spent the morning biking the trail in the other direction (towards Rushford). It was a gorgeous morning and a great way to end the weekend!
