We have now had a few more days to get to know this city and we like it more and more each day. The two lakes across the street from our apartment have several wonderful parks, walking and biking trails, and swimming beaches. The trail system in the city is amazing. I started biking to the VA last week. I can hook onto the trail in front of our building and arrive at the hospital 9-1/2 miles away having taken a continuous trail (along the Minnehaha creek, past Lake Hiawatha) for all but about the last 500 yards.
The houses along the shores of these lakes are all unique with great architecture and beautiful yards. They hail back to a time when neighborhoods weren't just carbon copy 2x4 dwellings.
These were a few of our favorites.

We're pretty sure this is the house we want to build some day.
We watched the fireworks on the 4th on the roof of the apartment building and there were no less than 15 fireworks show visible in all directions.
If it wasn't so ridiculously cold in the winter I would give this city a 4 star rating.
