The Humans keep deciding to make one last Fall trip in the Little House on Wheels. This time we went to Sleepy Eye, MN. We stayed 2 nights at the Sportsman's Park Campground, located on the shore of Sleepy Eye Lake.


On the way to the campground we stopped at Fort Ridgely State Park. The Humans were interested in the history, but I mainly was interested in gopher holes and trails.



No adventure is complete without a visit to a brewery. That evening we went to Lost Sanity Brewing in Madelia, MN. The Humans liked the beer, and I got to be inside too.

We started the next day with a trip to Minneopa State Park in Mankato, MN. This park features a small buffalo herd, an old windmill from the 1860's, and a waterfall (almost dry because of the drought this year).




For lunch we visited the August Schell Brewing Company in New Ulm, MN. Very interesting place, with gardens, lots of other dogs, and strange birds and strange fish.



On the way back to the campground we stopped at Sleepy Eye Brewing. I had to stay out on the patio at this one.

The next day we stopped at Bobbing Bobber Brewing Company on the way home. I had been here before, but always a favorite since I can be inside if the weather isn't real great.

Overall, another great trip in the Little House on Wheels!
