Last Sunday we went for a drive along the Mississippi River.  It was absolutely amazing.  Beautiful.  We were lucky to catch the sunset on our way home.  This picture doesn't do justice to how beautiful it really was.  I live in a land so foreign to what I grew up with. I am so used to desert dry.  Beautiful in it's own way, but this place is different.  I never realized how dry it is in Utah until I came here.  But back to the river, our drive took about 2 hours and it was really fun.  I think the kids even enjoyed, at least they didn't complain about the drive so I think they liked it.   We are standing on the Wisconsin side of the river looking at the Minnesota shoreline.  We saw some eagles fishing in the river about the same time I took this picture but they were so far away that they just looked like dots on the water.  The kids really were excited about that.  There is a place were you can watch the eagles fish further down the river that we are going to have to go find sometime.
