At Hammal Lake, near Aitkin, MN. Alissa and John are admiring the northern pike Jan caught. John was brave enough to touch the fish's tail. |

John and Alissa joined Jan and me for a walk, ending here at the boat access ramp into Hammal Lake. Just after this picture was taken, John spent time throwing pebbles into the lake. |

Then it was time for the Minnesota State Fair, where in the one and a half days we walked more that 8 miles and sampled fair food: cheese curds, deep-fried pickles, corn dogs among others. Here is the Amish doughnut, for which we had to wait in line for at least 30 minutes. |
|
Fair food continued: this is called 3 Piggy Pals on a Stick, and we also enjoyed gelato and a dinner of Minnesota Rice Meatballs with Lingonberry sauce. |

Our last stop was to join Kristen and Kevin in a post-wedding celebration on a farm near Dryfork, WV. Pictured here is Tammy (mother of the bride), Kristen, Elizabeth and Jan. |
