In Search of Eagles

For my second day with Heidi and Marshall, we drove down to Wabasha, Minnesota, to have lunch at Slippery's Tavern (think Grumpy Old Men) and to visit the National Eagle Center 


Marshall loved these water fountains and the waterfall.


Marshall, along with 4 other children, got to go to the front of the lecture to flap his arms as an eagle.

Suddenly Was'aka began flapping his wings. Marshall wasn't so sure he liked this!


Harriet, the eagle who appears on some Minnesota license plates, had recently taken a bath - thus, the wet sand near her perch and bath tub. I think Marshall enjoyed this part of the center.

How fun. Marshall is sure cute. Did I mention that I think he looks a lot like Chad. Chad's mom said the he had blonde hair when he was Marshall's age. Nice pictures of Heidi. It must have been a great day.

That's Mom's favorite place. She told us that she loves it down there with all the eagles.

To Hemingway and Shakespeare, I think we're going to have to get acquainted. What do you think?
