What a day yesterday was! We had lunch with the Early Guy and the Early Bride...ever have spaghetti and
meatballs on a stick? Sherry did. After lunch, we enjoyed the Gibson Brothers, then headed out to Fargo,
which is every bit as exciting as I remembered it from 20 years ago. I know that's not fair, because Fargo
suffers by comparison, being right next door to exciting Moorhead, MN. We kept expecting to run into the
Coen brothers. Today, we're on the road through what they tell us will be 90+ degree heat. Glad Stubby
checked the a/c and coolant on "Dixie" before we left home. Here we go, on to Miles City, Montana, for
tonight, with stops for the Giant Buffalo in Jamestown, the giant Holstein in New Salem, and whatever else
we can find to squander some time on. Oh, eats, too. Later.

First rule of travel,
class? Anybody
paying attention?
Little Johnny? Never
miss a chance to pee?
Right. Good boy.

As far as is known,
there has never
been a photo taken
of this man with his
mouth closed.
Kinda like listening
to his show.
Wonderful, FRESH
mini-donuts at the
MN State Fair.

Oh, yummy!

Moose listeners and friends from all over the place at the Minnesota State Fair.

In the middle, new friends we met at the King's Countrymen's Bluegrass Gospel Festival in Mondovi, Jim and
Bobbi from the People's Republic of Minnesota (and Tennessee).
And our dear old friends, Ralph and Janice from between Stubbyville and Durand. Didn't we have fun at the Gibson
Brothers concert?

Boy, talk about your "sea of humanity"...
Thousands of folks at the fair, all with the same burning question:
Where's the biffy?

An ancient ritual among certain rural Minnesota
mystics: placing carefully sculpted geometric shapes
in a pattern designed to match the stars. It's not
widely known, but the Druids patterned Stonehenge
after these placements. You could look it up.

Don't know what the big fuss was about the
Sphinx in Egypt. Here's its predecessor, in
modern form, built by ancient Minnesota
thousand years before anybody thought about
that thing in Egypt.

There they are, our favorites, Eric on banjo and
Leigh on guitar, the Gibson Brothers. We got an
autographed copy of their latest Cd, and you'll be
hearing some of it on Bluegrass Wednesday,
when we get back home. What a beautiful day
Thursday was!

Cheeseburger.
