This sounds like so much fun! We have done that before, especially the week between Christmas and New Year's. Mike always takes that week off, and often we stay here and hit all the fun spots in town. But, of course, the Twin Cities in the middle of winter has less to offer than Austin in the summer. You hit the same spots we'd go to if we actually visited! I love looking at the pictures you post, too, I can't believe how big the girls are getting.
So freaking cool! I'm pretty sure if we tried that in WF we'd be done in 3 hours. World's smallest sky scrapper, train museum, falls and done. What about that state cemetery we talked about a few years ago? Have you ventured over there?
Still haven't hit the state cemetery, but it is on my list. It is just. too. hot!
