12-May-2000 -- I love southeastern Minnesota. I was there for family
stuff and skipped out a bit to bag a confluence. It was a gorgeous, sunny,
extremely windy day. I stopped at a Taco John's in Faribault, grabbed some potato
olés, and hit the road. The roads were all on a grid so the confluence wasn't too
hard to find. Walked out into the muddy field maybe fifty yards until the GPS
zeroed out.
I took photos in all four directions, but a dog started barking off to the west,
which threw me off, because I didn't know if I was about to get yelled at for
tramping on a freshly planted field. So the east photo didn't turn out. I blame the
dog.
