A Weekend in the Cities

We took a three day weekend to go up to the Twin Cities this August. Follow along for the adventure!


After a few photo stops along the way, our first stop was Osseo for some legendary wings. Burly N Bucks have won a few awards for their wings. They were pretty good, not our favorite out of all the wings we've had, but still good. More importantly, the mushroom and swiss I devoured.

A quick dive over took us to Augusta where we met this friendly beaver.

One of the big highlights of the day was the Wisconsin Logging Camp. I highly suggest checking them out! I loved the "kids" room and the historical logging camp outside. Plus, you can see Paul and Babe, greeting visitors at the front.

Sunday came pretty quick and we were once again on the road. First stop of the day was Minnesota's Largest Candy Store. This is a cash only store.

For a late breakfast, we ate at Baker's Square. The 4-Square is a great deal and I can't wait to get it again!
