Monday, June 25, 2012 - Des Moines, IA to Minneapolis, MN

The other Central Park, Algona, IA style

Is that how they smash the grapes?

File under "you can't even make this stuff up."
National Hobo Convention
Founded by Hobos who turned to farming

We tip our hats to "Evil Steve."
We made it to the promised land (Clear Lake, IA). 
They are so accommodating here.

The Lady of the Lake

They are absolutely correct. We agreed and complied.

Lunch spot

Yippee-kai-yay!

A memorial for Richie Valens, Buddy Holly and The Big Bopper who played their last concert here in Clear Lake.

Where their last concert was held

Such a Diva

Meet me at the corner of...

The big record player memorial


Turn left? Go straight? 

STOP!

Where the lumberjacks stop.
We are a Manly Forest City! We don't need no stinkin' services!

Welcome to Minnesota!

Target Field! We are here to see the Twins host the White Sox.

There is a farmers' market as a food option!

Retired numbers. These numbers are also the gate numbers, which was confusing.

Woo!

Nice flowers.  Also, Todd's Yankees are beating Stephanie's Indians.

WHY have we not seen these before?!?!?!


Hello Youkilis

Locally-raised turkey sandwiches! (and delicious)

The 7th-inning Stretch singing happened right before our eyes!

Awww...

Awww...

Twins win!

This lady was so happy!

Final score. This only helps Stephanie's Indians in the standings. (keeping it in perspective)


This guy had an AWESOME Red Solo Cup hat!
