St. Urho's Day 2006
Finland, Minnesota

Theme: St. Urho Goes to the Rodeo!


We were a bit late for the parade (Timo overslept). We were about 5 cars behind the ambulance that brought up the rear of the parade. No matter; we made the best of it and stopped for beers at Our Place, West Branch and Four Seasons. Along the way we took a few photos.
