Concourse at Garrison, Minnesota. This beautiful rest area was
created in the 1930's with labor by the Civilian Conservation

east-central Minnesota.

Another view from Garrison. Note the seagull on the left and a fishing boat tied to a dock. Minnesota is often referred to as the "Land of Sky Blue Water." |

This is Minnesota State Highway 18 on the north side of Lake Mille Lacs. The trees, in summer, overhang the road and enhance the beauty. |

From the east side of Lake Mille Lacs. The sun reflects off the water on a July day. Mille Lacs Lake is about 20 miles across. |
