Day 27 of #30daysofbiking. Baby it's cold outside! Despite having four layers on while I rode, it was still cold! I stopped at the Buckham Memorial Library in Faribault to warm up. We have a beautiful library with so many wonderful books and resources. If you ever come to Faribault, check it out! #biking #Minnesota #OnlyinMN #captureminnesota #Minnesotalife #chooseminnesota #thisismymn #mwtblogger #midwest #mwtravel #midwesttravel #midwestisbest #midwestblogger #exploreminnesota #mn #minnstagrammers #twincitiescollective #twincitiesbloggers #visitfaribault #faribault #ridemn #PedalMN #library (at Buckham Memorial Library)

Day 28 of #30daysofbiking. I'm glad that the sun came out this morning to warm things up a little. I headed to Teepee Tonka Park. The viaduct is often photographed in Faribault. The Straight River flows from here and joins with the Cannon River just down the road near Alexander Park. It's such a pretty spot. Have a great evening! #biking #Minnesota #OnlyinMN #captureminnesota #Minnesotalife #chooseminnesota #thisismymn #mwtblogger #midwest #mwtravel #midwesttravel #midwestisbest #midwestblogger #exploreminnesota #mn #minnstagrammers #twincitiescollective #twincitiesbloggers #visitfaribault #faribault #ridemn #PedalMN #river (at TeePee Tonka Park)

On a recent guided tour of Minnesota's oldest cathedral (The Cathedral of Our Merciful Saviour in Faribault), I saw some beautiful artwork. In Gilbert Hall, a dining room where community meals are served to those in need, there hangs a long linear sculpture that is a replica of the Italian artist Luca Della Robia's "Cantoria" featuring singing and dancing children. Above the sculpture, a series of murals run around the room and depict "The Quest for the Holy Grail." The murals are actually photographs of Sir Edwin Abbey's murals in the Boston Public Library in Massachusetts. They tell the story of Sir Galahad, a Knight of the Round Table, who is sent by King Arthur to find the Holy Grail, or the cup which Christ used at his last supper. #minnesota #OnlyinMN #captureminnesota #thisismymn #faribault #historicchurch #historicbuilding #visitfaribault #guidedtour #cathedral #midwest #minnesotamurals #sculpture #italianart #minnstagram #minnstagrammers #knightsoftheroundtable #sirgalahad #minnesotahistory (at Cathedral of Our Merciful Saviour)

Day 29 of #30daysofbiking. I headed out for an early morning ride today. A month ago, I took this picture after I pledged to do the 30 Days of Biking. Amazing to see how nature changes in thirty days. #biking #Minnesota #OnlyinMN #captureminnesota #Minnesotalife #chooseminnesota #thisismymn #mwtblogger #midwest #mwtravel #midwesttravel #midwestisbest #midwestblogger #exploreminnesota #mn #minnstagrammers #twincitiescollective #twincitiesbloggers #visitfaribault #faribault #ridemn #PedalMN #minnesotaspring #spring (at Faribault, Minnesota)

Day 26 of #30daysofbiking. How many geese can you spot in this picture? I found these beauties at River Bend Nature Center. I wasn't able to bike on any of the dirt trails, but stuck to the road. I also saw a few deer and checked out the waterfall, which was flowing pretty good because of the rain we've had the last couple of days. Brr! It felt like the coldest day of the month to ride a bike! Have a great evening! #biking #Minnesota #OnlyinMN #captureminnesota #Minnesotalife #chooseminnesota #thisismymn #mwtblogger #midwest #mwtravel #midwesttravel #midwestisbest #midwestblogger #exploreminnesota #mn #minnstagrammers #twincitiescollective #twincitiesbloggers #visitfaribault #faribault #ridemn #PedalMN #naturecenter #geese #canadageese (at River Bend Nature Center)

The Straight River beginning to ice over. Always fun to watch the changes from season to season when you hike a familiar trail. #minnesota #OnlyinMN #captureminnesota #trail #minnstagram #minnstagrammers #visitfaribault #faribault #river #riverbend (at River Bend Nature Center)
