Rochester, MN (AKA "Old Home Week")

• Day 1 - Set up camp at the Marion KOA about 10 minutes southeast of town and then joined an ex-coworker, Paul and his wife, at a Vietnamese restaurant, Pho Tai.
• Day 2 - A lovely day in Minnesota! Visited with Jeff and Emily Bond and their daughter, Laura, at their home in Rochester. Geoff did a couple of loads of laundry at the campground in the afternoon.
• Day 3 - A hotter and more humid day, one like we were used to seeing in MN in late June. Geoff ran the remaining loads of laundry we had accumulated. Visited with George and Pat Penokie at their home, went out for Mexican food with them and then took in the "Thursdays on 1st and 3rd" event downtown, with live music and vendor booths. George ran into several co-workers, both past and present, and their insurance guy.
• Day 4 - The hottest and humidest of our stay! Spent most of it in our air-conditioned RV, air-conditioned car, air-conditioned restaurants (lunch with friends Tom and Liane Peterson in nearby Cannon Falls), air-conditioned stores, and air-conditioned synagogues (B'nai Israel, our first congregation after our move to MN where we met Joe and Barbara Davidson some 33 years ago). The day ended in typical MN style with a rousing thunderstorm followed by cooler, dryer air.
