After leaving our friends' farm near Balaton, Minnesota, we headed north and a little bit east to Sauk Centre. We were staying there for two nights while taking the opportunity to visit with a couple of friends in this area of Minnesota.
On Saturday afternoon, we drove to St Cloud to visit our Venture Out neighbor, Barb! After catching up some and seeing her beautiful home in Minnesota ...
|
... we headed into St Cloud for a Mexican dinner!
|
|
After supper, Barb drove us around St Cloud, including a visit to Munsinger Gardens.
|
|
This is a beautiful public garden area along the Mississippi River.
|
|
Along the river
|
We walked through the gardens and down to where a dam on the river is located...
|
The river is very high and a lot of water was flowing over the dam.

Some of the interesting flowers in the garden

Same flower without the additional small middle growth (seed pod?) out of the bloom
|
|
We were enjoying using Google Lens to identify the plants.
|
|
There were a *lot* of hostas in the garden.
|
|
In another part of the gardens - delphiniums

It was so nice to visit Barb in her home and know that she has just as beautiful home in Minnesota as her home in Venture Out!
