Chris, Cheri found a web site that may aid you in planning,

Minnesota Wine Trail

When you use the map search in there link, Lake City also showes a winery loction.
The three are Hastings Cannon Falls and Redwing, you could taken out Cannon Falls and
try the lake city winery, that way it stays along the Mississippi river. it would be cool to cross ofer to WI side along the Mississippi but with winneries and food stop it might be to long of a

Places to meet
2:00pm Eden Prairie Target parking lot
2:45pm Woodbury OutBack parking lot
Then on to the drive and maybe dinner.

If you want to join us you can meet us at the places above, we won’t be at either place to long as we want to get as much of the run done as we can.

Hope you all survived the week and are ready to enjoy the weekend.

WOW!!! We have a really fun route!

I loved Hwy 60 out of Wabasha! It was really awesome!

We found a really cute place to have brunch at on Sunday Oct 12th. Most of the co-pilots are going to love it! Check it out at The Historic Anderson House Hotel| Wabasha Minnesota Lodging | Wabasha Minnesota Bed and Breakfast | Wabasha Minnesota| Mississippi River

The cheese curds in Nelson were YUMMY too. (I just finished the bag...)

We didn't get to complete the route because it got too late. We weren't able to leave in the am, so we ran out of time.

BUT! we did make it down Hwy 60 and it was INCREDIBLE! I can't wait to drive it again!!!

Hope you can join us on the 12th!

It was fun seeing 4 Sky's on the Wisconsin side of Lake Pepin.

We got an early start and ran across 60 before lunch. It was one of our better runs across 60 as we were by ourselves most of the time so we did not have to slow down for the Buick's.

We visited the Alexis Bailley Winery a couple of years ago and were surprised that you had to go down a gravel road for a bit to get there. Not sure what the road is like now. The rest of the run looks interesting with a number of stops that will be new to me.

Put us down as a maybe for the 12th.
