Day 173: Minnesota history

We checked out a library pass to see the Minnesota History Center, so we enjoyed going today as a family, complete with picnic lunch. So of course it was a gorgeous day with all sorts of great views around St. Paul . . . and I forgot my camera again. I took a few shots with my camera phone, including the one below of Jamin looking at the historical MN license plates within the transportation portion of the museum. Interesting reading some of the blurbs on our transportation history when there's an important transportation bill being voted on next week. Surprisingly, Jamin is for an increase in fuel tax to improve transportation even though his paycheck is viciously gouged to pay for his truck's fuel.

Zaria really enjoyed walking around the museum, especially behind the little red wagon in the house of talking walls. She's really gaining confidence, but was wanting a guiding hand still at this point in a new environment. She also managed to nap a while in her stroller, so we were able to stay for quite a while longer than we'd expected. Yay!
