Exploring Minnesota: Northfield

Today we headed down to Northfield to check out the Riverwalk and Farmer's Market. The Market was disappointing, with very little produce, mostly art and prepared foods (we did get some honey sticks and refrigerator pickles though). The River walk was pretty, but short, only about 2 blocks total. Beautiful views but not really what we were expecting. We wandered the entire downtown, stopped in a half dozen stores, did the river walk, farmer's market and stopped for lunch at the Quarterback Club (decent burgers, excellent shakes) all in about 2 1/2 hours....a fun little half day adventure (about all the boys can handle) and another activity checked off our Explore Minnesota list.
