Day 36 Lake City ot Brownsville MN

Today's trip started us down the beautiful Mississippi River Valley. This area is known for the number of Bald Eagles that nest in the are. We saw one, but very high in the sky, no alas so close up picture. But you know what they look like away.


















A special chance to add another state to our trip presented itself when we crossed over from Wabasha MN to Wisconsin. We rode south on Route 35 until we crossed back into MN at Winona (a really nice town). As we continued south, we were amazed at how scenic this area is. I had no idea that the Mississippi was surrounded by tall bluffs.



















Distance: 97 miles

Overall distance: 2234 miles

Glad you folks got to see this part of the country--one of my favorites, even a possible retirement destination. Good pedaling to you!
