Mystery Vacation!

Last September we planned a two day "mystery vacation" for the kids. They knew we were going somewhere but didn't know where. We visited the Mennonite Museum in Steinbach, went to the Mint (where they make the Canadian money) and Zoo in Winnipeg, and went to a corn maze. The kids loved the surprise of wondering where we were going next and we loved planning it.

Anyway, Arthur told me to plan another "mystery vacation" for early September. We're looking at 1-3 days, and within about a five hour radius of Warroad. Any ideas? Are there any places you've been that were a lot of fun or educational? Any great places you loved to stay or eat out? If you have I'd love the input! Either give me a call, an email, or leave a comment which you can even do anonymously! If there's any glitch, we don't want to spend a lot, although we're open to any ideas.

The repair man fixed the bulk tank this morning! Thanks for praying!!
