Yesterday I talked about grilling and eating barbecue. Today as part of your weekend escape from the leadership rat race I would like to talk about an event that goes hand-in-hand with grilling, picnicking.
The weather is getting nicer and as you barbecue it may be a good idea to eat outside. Maybe you take your grilling to your special location. Do you have a favorite spot that you like to picnic? Here in Minnesota we have 10,000 lakes so the choices are almost endless.
My favorite place to go and take the family is to head to Minnehaha Falls. It is extremely beautiful and there are numerous picnic areas. There are paths to hike along and if you are ambitious you can hike to the Mississippi river.
Another great place that is local to the Twin Cities is the Coon Rapids dam. There is many picnic areas and you can walk across the river to the other side by crossing over the dam. Watching the power of the water is spectacular. My son wanted to go there during the winter that is how much he liked visiting the dam.
Hope you took some time to visit your favorite places for a picnic. Plan some special weekends and day trips taking your family to explore your wonderful state. Be sure when you do that you bring your favorite food to grill or eat during your visit. It is possible you like to visit state parks or national parks.
I would like to hear from you on some of the places you visit and picnic in your region or state.
