Friday, June 29, 2012 - Winnipeg, MB to Fargo, ND

Canada is super-prepared.

School bus stop? Here?

South Beach, just around the corner.

Manitoba Baseball Hall of Fame!

Old uniforms

Wow.

Uniforms through the ages

There's no crying in baseball!

Cool mural

Todd is the one with hands.

We ARE in Canada. We had to show SOME hockey

Our mothers would indeed be shocked.

TODD! SLOW DOWN! THEY MEAN KILOMETERS!

49! Woot! Woot!

Welcome to North Dakota!

OK Todd, speed on.

Lunch with our friends


We left our translator in the car - can anyone help?

I can help!

Game room / medical experiments?

Uh, Todd...there's a phalanx of alien water bottles advancing...

We think he may cheat.

Mmm...Martian Munchies and The Universe's best fries

An hour is a short commute?

Finally! A familiar sight!

High four to that!

Stephanie has new friends.

If you're ever in Grand Forks, ND...

Finally! Friday! Fargo!

Ballpark Parking lot

Is this tough to parallel park?

A very high percentage of the total population of Fargo is spending their Friday night with us.
We are at Fargo-Moorhead to see the Redhawks take on the St. Paul (MN) Saints.

Field!

The foul pole does resemble an ear of corn, we guess.

Retired number - Roger Maris who hails from Fargo

It was his turn tonight.

Thank you Harold Newman for this great ballpark!

Stephanie says, "hi."

Ole's red rocking chair is empty, he must be mingling.

Wha?

This is a different Ole. The place is crawling with them!

Darn it! We will not be here for Red Solo Cup Saturday!

Yes. There is a Hooters. At the ballpark.

Ole's back!

Nom nom

Very industrious Fargo-ans (Fargo-ites?) building an empty cup pyramid.
Hi Kylle, Zach and Amy!!

The first pyramid collapsed. Kylle rebuilt it. He had the technology.

NOT Hulk Hogan

Thank you for taking our picture Zach!
Thank you Fargo!

Beer stand...bottoms up draught? OK, we'll bite.

The most miraculous beer cup filling device we have ever seen.
It fills from the bottom of the cup. NO FOAM!

Filling the beer cups


Saint Paul bested Fargo 7-5.

There were still fireworks!

We went to a local bar to celebrate being in Fargo, ND on a Friday night. The Nestor.
It had 2 rooms, one had a DJ and the other had a beer store and a pool table and a jukebox.

We went to the side with the jukebox and look what we found!
This is a local NYC rock band we love.

PLAYING THE HEAVES IN FARGO! What could be better?
