A fun-filled weekend.

Friday went to my first Twins game in the new outdoor baseball stadium.

Allison has a semi-season set of tickets and invited me to go with her.  She has great seats near homeplate.

It is a beautiful, compact stadium.  Lots of things going on....all made perfect by the Twins winning against the Seattle Mariners.

Saturday, Bunny, Rachel, Christine and I drove up to Duluth to see the Tall Ships taking part in the Great Lakes Challenge Race Course. There were 8 ships.

Two were sailing through out the day.  These six were docked at the Duluth Bay Front Park and were having boardings.

This is the bowhead of the HMS Bounty. This ship was very popular with a very very long line to board. We decided didn't want to do the long wait in the heat.

The ship was used in the 1960 movie "Mutiny on the Bounty" and more recently in the Johnny Depp "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead's Man's Chest."

Bunny and I posing on the U.S. Brig Niagara. This ship used to belong to the people of Pennsylvania. It now is owned by a non-profit private organization.

All the ships had friendly, interesting and helpful crews and volunteers.

We all had a great time and were so glad we made the drive up to Duluth.
