Believe it or not, this is 5.5 miles from our house. It's hard to believe that this is really in an urban area. It's very close to the West side of the Mississippi river and is nearly across the river from the St. Paul Ford Plant, where they make Ford Rangers.The same park also has a trolley, which if I am not mistaken, connects to the trolley line in the park by our house. It also has Longfellows house, which surprised me, I didn't know Longfellow resided in Minneapolis. Along with a home of the first settler of Minneapolis.
It was a very cute park. You can rent those funny little bikes that kind of look like an open four person car, that you'd see on Macinac Island (spelling?) They had a playground and a seafood restaurant (which I thought was odd). It was fun we walked around down the river and around the park for an hour or too before we returned home.
