The Minnehaha on Lake Minnetonka

Posted by Shek on June 2nd, 2009

As we finished our 30 mile bike ride, we loaded up the front of a pontoon boat to cross Lake Minnetonka.  The steamboat Minnehaha cornered us at the docks in Excelsior and while this delayed the return to our cars in Wayzata, it was an opportunity to see a boat that has spent an equal number of years sitting at the bottom of Lake Minnetonka as it has ferrying passengers around the lake.

Mini golf

While doing a 30 mile bike ride with friends, we stopped at Big Stone Mini Golf in Minnetrista.  The mini golf holes are part of and surrounded by art installations created by the owner of the mini golf course.  It was a blast and worth checking out.
