Minneapolis Views

Angela and Jennifer


We went shopping above the street on the SkyWay. This picture overlooks an indoor park along the SkyWay with live trees.

Aunt Dixie showed me how to use her Wii Fit.


Picture of Uncle Boyd, me, and Aunt Dixie. Notice the wonderful views of Minneapolis behind us?



Memorial Tree- Dedicated to the Hennepin County Territorial Pioneers by the Native Sons of Minnesota on June 3, 1916.



Ard Godfrey House- Built in 1848, this is the earliest frame house still standing in Minneapolis and it is within walking distance from Aunt Dixie's condo.


View of the oldest church building in Minneapolis. Our Lady of Lourdes has been in continuous use since the mid-1800s. The First Universalist Society of St. Anthony erected the building as a meeting hall between 1854 and 1857 and as the First Universalist Church where they worshipped until 1877. The Catholic Church acquired the church and continues to hold mass every Sunday. The church has become a popular place to get married and Aunt Dixie enjoys watching the bridal parties from her kitchen window.
