Minnehaha Parkway

Spring!  I forced myself to get up an hour early today to capture some of the beautifulness I saw on the way to work yesterday.  Here is one of the beautifulnesses.

Kaleidoscope of Spring

Spring has finally arrived in Minnesota.

Mather Park Gate

According to the attached writings, the land within this gateway was given to the people of Canada in 1928 by American citizen, Alonzo C. Mather.  The gateway was built in 1939 and dedicated in August 1940 to the perpetual friendship of the nations on either side of the Niagara River.

Tourist Trap

Tropical Surroundings

The tropical Margaritaville façade next to our hotel wasn't fooling anyone.  It was cold and blustery when we arrived.  If the silver car wasn't in the way, you would be able to see the falls.
