Fergus Falls

In Fergus Falls we stopped by the pond where Rachel has been watching the egrets nesting in the tree in the middle of the pond. She wanted to get some more pictures and to show me the birds, so we stopped. I thought we would be out in the country, but this pond was right in the city at a park. We got out and took some pictures and enjoyed watching the birds.

Rachel has her new camera bag Phil bought her for her birthday.


Canadian Geese were all around the pond as well.

To see more recent pictures of these birds checkout Rachel's blog:

 
We went into Fergus Falls and stopped at a game/bookstore. Rachel looked at the games while Phil went downstairs to check out the books. After looking at the games with Rachel I wandered downstairs to see what kind of books they had. It was filled and overflowing with books of all kinds. Rachel bought some games and I bought some books.

The books are downstairs


Phil loves looking through the books

Then we went across the street to a nice gift shop and looked all through the store, they had books, and a lot of very unique gift items. It was fun walking through and seeing all that they had. Next we went another neat little store called the Market. Phil and Rachel bought me this:

I played this game as a kid and we had bought some for Ben and Phil when they were small.

We found everything put an airplane!

 
We played auto bingo on the way to Phelps Mills where we were attacked by so many swarms of some kind of flies/bugs that we had to run to get away from them. The Mill was closed so we headed back to the car and they were all over the car and we had to try and rush in before they got inside.  We laughed as we tried to shoo them out the windows.

That night we had homemade pizza and played the games Rachel bought. Next time you visit, ask them to play Wooly Bully and Such a Thing! We had a great day!


It was yummy!!!!
