Adventures Around MN
20% Project by Danielle Bacon (Hour 3)
Why I Chose This Topic
I chose this topic because I suffer from severe depression and anxiety and decided this would be good motivation to keep me from secluding myself and sitting in my house all day, everyday and also starting to learn more about the state I live in!
Night Nation Run 5K
My first ever 5K that I ran and I can not WAIT to do it again!
Cheesecake Factory
I literally tried three different types of cheesecakes and fell in love with one of them. Oreo Dream Cheesecake, who knew one could fall in love with food?
Como Park & Conservatory
I was absolutely mesmerized by the beauty of the conservatory. It was such a relaxed environment!
More Places I Visited!
Where I Couldn't Visit
During this project, I really wanted to visit Duluth because I have never been there. I did a bunch of research on the Glensheen Mansion and learned that a murder happened in the house rumoring the mansion to be haunted which really interested me. I have always been really entertained by supernatural stuff so I was really disappointed that I wasn't able to fit it into my tight schedule! I am however visiting the Vasillica Axe Murder House in Iowa this Summer which I found all because of this project.
CHERRY AND THE SPOON
I have wanted to see that cherry and the spoon for the longest time simply because I always saw the snapchat filter of it and wanted to use it! I ended up taking this super "artsy" picture and am absolutely obsessed with it. Although I almost crashed into a very nice car trying to parallel park so I could get here, I still made it.
Minnehaha Falls Part 1
This was the first 80 degree day of 2016 and I spent it at my absolute FAVORITE place in MN!
Minnehaha Falls Part 2
The main waterfall of Minnehaha. I would love to hike behind it one day! That is definitely on my bucket list.
Minnehaha Falls Part 3
This day it was about 13 degrees out and I froze but I still went to see the falls. I always heard it was beautiful in the Winter so I decided to see for myself.
