Day 5 - Minnesota Nice

Today was a difficult day on the road. Both of us were having some foot pain, but luckily the route through St. Cloud was beautiful. We finally made it to a walking trail as opposed to a road. There were great river views and moments of quiet. We portaged for 11 miles and ended our day in Sauk Rapids.

During the afternoon and early evening we spent time at two different restaurants. The people there were curious about our trip and extremely gracious. We got a few donations and Abe had his first frog leg! (For free)

We spent the night at a nearby campsite. We were accompanied by none other than Sarah Gross and Sara Gensmer. We hadn't seen them in a long time and it was great catching up around the campfire.

We are ready for tomorrow when we will venture out with all of our gear and nobody to pick us up for the next 10 days

Nothin' to it, but to do it
