Day two in the Frozen north

We were at the Convention Center before the show opened, didn't have much trouble finding it, nor too much traffic so that was good. So we went around and looked at a great many fifth-wheel, drive-ables, and trailers. They began to look quite the same and we didn't find anything that we fell in love with, well one we fell in love with and good pull with our pickup! We had hoped to look at RV's etc with cold weather packages but they really weren't showing much more than in KC. I think we decided that we'd just stay with the one we have even though we have a few things we'd really like to change. I went to a neat quilt shop in an old railroad station and bought a few fat quarters plus the book of shops accross the country, should save me some work looking for them! Then I went to IKEA. Really neat stuff there but I didn't buy much. Tomorrow we're leaving Minneapolis and going to Wabasha, MN to an Eagle center on the Mississippi River where you can see multiple eagles flying and fishing. Winter is the best time for this so off we go. We saw an eagle just outside of Des Moines on the way up, it was pretty neat. So, we won't be home before Sunday, at least. I haven't figured out our path home, and who knows how many shops we'll have to stop at.

Happy birthday to Brayden!!!
