And the prairie / woodland interface at Holy Wisdom.

Over to Mount Horeb (a beautiful little town) for some lively dog walking along a ravine in the driftless area, a little bit of shopping at the Duluth Trading Company store, and lunch with Nik at the Grumpy Troll. Then, on the way back, another long dog romp at Holy Wisdom, where we came across one woman in deep comtemplation, and a couple of bird watchers, but otherwise had the place to ourselves. Holy moly. Happy dogs.
