Pacific Northwest meets Minnesota

Photo blog: Weekends

With three day weekends I’ve got plenty of time to do whole lot of nothing.  However with the good graces of bunkhouse mates who have cars, I get to go on the occasional adventure.  Lately my weekends have been shortened to the standard two-day weekends most folks get as I fill in at the office on Fridays.  Here are some photographs depicting what I do with my days off.  Wordpress is too smart for me and I haven’t figured out formatting so apologies for the lack of structure.
