Grand Marais, MN ... Beach, Donuts & Coffee

The World's Best Donuts, Grand Marais, since 1969.

There was a great old Thermos collection displayed all over the cafe.

Saint Paul to Two Harbors, MN

Landmark Plaza in Saint Paul, MN has a bunch of giant Peanuts statues.

I love old faded murals painted on bricks!

Google ...

... & Stella are both exhausted, but LOVE camping!

Our Vrbo Rental in Minnesota

We're in Rochester, MN for Mary's work retreat. We rented a house on Vrbo so we could have a fenced in backyard for Stella & Google. They love it!

 

All the comforts of home.

Heading to Rochester

I think this house is about to fall down.

Embassy reflection in a window display.

Crazy graffiti!

It's Mary's turn to drive ...

Our mantra ... "Ice cream is always a good idea!"

Stella's wondering what everyone is ordering.

Embassy Rally & Crackerdocking

There was lots of time to check out everyone's van to get ideas for accessories & modifications. It was great!

Stella, Google & Mary LOVE the Embassy! This pic shows our new Kelty Backroads Shelter. It helps keep the entry dry during a storm.

Terry shows off the new Embassy Cape Cod B+.

I bumped into Robert when I checked out the interior of the Cape Cod. He has the Roads of Life YouTube page with lots of helpful videos about owning & traveling in an Embassy Class B camper van.

Guy & Rose Anne have the Amore Van YouTube page. There are lots of videos about how to do just about anything you need to do for your Embassy, ideas for accessories & videos from their travels. Guy interviewed us during the event. Please check it out when you have 15 minutes to spare. Here's the video link.

Great lunch for all of the rally participants & staff.

There was a ton of stuff for the free raffle. This photo doesn't do it justice.

Nice sky!

Our first night Crackerdocking (the practice of parking an RV overnight at a Cracker Barrel restaurant).
