Spring on the river

Last week HOW met on the Mississippi River in Downtown Minneapolis. We walked north along the river, crossed over and came back on the west side and then crossed back on the Stone Arch Bridge to return to our cars.  St Anthony Falls were spectacular!  So much water, so much energy. 

It’s one of my favorite walks.  I keep saying I could do this one once a month but I know that people would mutiny on me and I would be walking alone.  There is something about the power of the river and the vistas from the bridges that pulls on my spirit. 

If you live in the area, you really should try this walk.  You can park on Nicollet Island and go either direction, enjoying the river as you go.  Just stay close to the water, you can’t get lost!
