One of the cool things about living here in the Twin Cities is that we have a lot of local parks, nature centers, refuges and other green spaces that are easily available to people. Since Minnesota is the land of 10,000 lakes ( actually we have 11,842) many of these areas are set up around lakes or rivers. This is a picture of a part of the Minnesota Valley Refuge. The refuge runs along the Minnesota River from Bloomington to Shakopee. The refuge looks quite a bit different at the moment, it is mostly snow and ice right now, but soon the plants and wildlife will return and the flowers will bloom again.

Wonderful photo!The different colours are so beautiful-the yellow and the blue!
Have a nice weekend!
What pretty colors!
If only it weren't quite so cold in the winter! It's a beautiful State and we loved traveling through there (in early Fall).
Surely a refuge.
Please have a good Friday.
