We had our rest day on the St Oalf College Campus in
Northfield MN. It is a beautiful campus
located on a hill overlooking the town of Northfield MN. There are
approximately 2500 students enrolled here.
Northfield is the site of the famous bank robbery by Jesse James.
The campus consists of these beautiful sandstone buildings
set amongst these huge maple trees.
Scattered on the lawns are Adirondack chairs and running between the
huge maple trees are really fat squirrels.
Ken and I got up and wandered over to the cafeteria and had
a laid back breakfast. Lingered over coffee and then wandered on down to
Walgreens to get a new razor. I am tired
of using disposables which give you a terrible shave and are scratchy.
Bike cleaning was next on the agenda. SQUIRREL With this
chore behind me the only thing to do was to sit in one of the Adirondack chairs
read a book and have an afternoon nap.
It was pure heaven.
Sunday supper was in the campus cafeteria and it was
great. This is a huge upgrade from the
Northfield Middle school where we stayed in 2010.
The following week is one of my favourites with all of the
bike paths, the ice cream parlours, and
of course the ferry ride across Lake Michigan.
