Two Days In Winona...


Our first day in Winona, MN we explored the city.






One of our most interesting moments happened when we saw this father pick up a snapper turtle out of the water by it's tail.  He told us his grandfather used to make a living by catching snappers.  His customers either were interested in turtle soup, or making decorative art pieces with the shells.



On day two we took a hike in the Great River Bluffs State Park.
We also became unwilling blood donors to the State Park's mosquito population.







Despite the mosquito bites, we enjoyed our stay in Winona, MN!
