Snow Shoeing and Photos
By JSP
We are back in Minneapolis and I have photos from our trip. The trip was really nice, relaxing and deserved. I enjoyed catching up with our wonderful group of friends. This was the fourth time JayBee and I have joined in on their Winter ski trip. I look forward to many more in the future.
My one bit of adventure included a vigorous snow shoe hike up one of the local mountain trails. Last year I also hiked in snow shoes, but the trail was flat and fairly uninteresting. This year, we found a trail that went up the side of one of the peaks in the Frisco area. It was very nice since it was good exercise and there were many outlooks to take in some stunning scenery. So below are a few of those pictures for your enjoyment.
Here are a few more images from the trip:
The view out our front window of our cabin.
Some pictures taken along HWY 70 on our way to the cabin.
And just before we returned to Minneapolis, Julie and Christian took us out for dinner at a Japanese restaurant named Domo. We had a variation on typical sushi, called Wankosushi. Instead of having the sushi fish with wasabi and soy sauce, here we were presented the fish with a variety of toppings. I believe this type of sushi represents rural Japanese tastes more than the Tokyo version of sushi we are more familiar with.
