Itasca State Park


























Itasca State Park is about 20 miles from my parents cabin. It is a beautiful park that includes hiking and biking trails, several lakes, a lodge with a restaurant and the headwaters (the start of the Mississippi River). Before Leo came along, Kevin and I would always go into the park and rent bikes and bike along the trails. This year we took Leo into the park to have breakfast at the Lodge and to see the headwaters. I think it's so amazing that the mighty Mississippi river begins at such a small, peaceful point. The waters are so calming and the scenery is beautiful. We had such a fun visit to the park with Grammy and Gramps.
