Pat and I just got back from one of his oldest friend's wedding in Winona. Lew (Overhaug) and Trina rented out the group camping site at Whitewater state park, located between Winona and Rochester, MN. It was a great location for a weekend of relaxed fun.
Our flight into the Cities got us there right at dinner, so what better time to check out our friends new restaurant.... The Strip Joint, meat and fish. JD used to be the head chef at Chino Latino, Muffaletta's, and others before starting this new adventure.... If any one lives in and around the city, please check this place out... it's a quaint location in St. Paul with exceptionally good food. Yes, I am biased, but it's still damn good....
The next couple of days were spent hangin' with Lew, Trina, and their families and friends out at Whitewater. The entire weekend was catered by Tina's folks (who happen to own the Blue Heron in Winona). Great food, even better friends, and not so great weather made the weekend spectacular.
We also made time to hang with Pat's family as much as possible. It was great that Bridget and " the man cub" made it down from Green Bay for a few days, so that Pat and I could visit with them. When you only see them once a year, it's amazing how fast Patrick grows and changes. What fun.
