Day 57 - A run around Lake Harriet, and baseball

We ran around beautiful Lake Harriet as early in the morning as we could get ourselves going (it is VERY hot here). Lake Harriet is one of the Mpls. chain of lakes, connected by park roads that, in total, are called the Grand Rounds. This lovely lake has homes all around, both a bike trail and a pedestrian trail, boating, and the Lake Harriet Bandshell, pictured here. We used to run to this lake from our house, all on parkway trails. It is very pretty!

We drove around two neighborhoods we used to live in: the first town house we lived in from 1966 to 1968, and the first house we owned, in Richfield, where we lived from 1968 to 1972. The Richfield house is pictured here.



In the evening we met friends for a Minnesota Twins/Cleveland Indians baseball game at the Metrodome. It was still 80+ degrees outside, but very pleasant inside. The Twins won the game in the bottom of the ninth inning, breaking the tie and winning 3-2. It was a really good game. The exterior of the Metrodome is pictured here.
