Pam’s visit to Minnesota

As everyone knows by now Pam enjoyed almost 3 weeks here visiting everyone in Minnesota from Fargo (ND) to Redwing. Here are some photo’s of her visit.

Before traveling north we had a short visit with Tara and Lance. Promises were made to keep in touch better.

Then off to my place. After getting settled somewhat we traveled north to Blackduck to visit with Dad and Jan at their new place. I am ashamed to say my camera didn’t leave the truck.

Pam, DJ and I got to spend 2 remarkably nice days at Tioga Beach.
