Outside of school, weekends have been busy. These next couple of pictures are from the Twin Cities Marathon. Erik and his dad ran the 10 Mile. I love the Twin Cities Marathon! I'm not about to run 26 miles personally, but I love the atmosphere. Strangers are cheering for strangers, the fall colors are out, and people are accomplishing goals. It almost made me want to run myself..maybe the 10 Mile next year? Eek.
Two weekends ago, Erik and I hit up the Kingfield Farmer's Market, my local neighborhood farmer's market. I always buy more than I can eat. This time I picked up some lettuce, potatoes and tomatoes. I like this market because they have food stands with ready to eat food. I had nachos, Erik had a curry falafel.
You can even buy a smoothie made on a bike!
In the afternoon we headed to an apple orchard. The apple doughnuts were wonderful, but I was disappointed that we couldn't pick our own apples. I rebelled and took an apple off a tree. I'm a rebel.
Today is the beginning of my MEA break. This is the first time in my life I am getting a paid vacation! We're headed to Madison to visit Britta and Sean, and conquer the corn maze.
Happy Fall!
