St Paul, MN Cathedral




 Yeah! I have good internet so I can put more than two pictures up.   I visited relatives in Minnesota and got a chance to walk through the Cathedral in St. Paul.  It is beautiful with lots of alcoves full of statues and stained glass.  It was built in the beginning of the 20th century and my great grandfather was involved in the construction.  I was in this cathedral when I was young but didn't remember much from that visit.  I have to say I have been to the National Cathedral in Washington D.C. and I found that cathedral a very sterile and uninteresting building.  St. Paul's cathedral is a much more interesting and beautiful church.  

I flew to Minnesota while Jim stayed in Yuma.  I had a great visit and got to see lots of relatives and a few friends that I haven't seen in quite awhile.   Flying is kind of a chore with having to wear a mask from the minute you step into the airport until after you collect your luggage and leave the building at your destination.  It was a little "cool" in Minnesota being the end of October and fall colors were all but done.  I saw a little snow and scraped a little ice off the windshield.  It was a good reminder of why I prefer winter in the southwest!
