A Cold Winter Day

It was frightfully cold the morning I took these, but the eagles eating breakfast helped me forget about my freezing fingers.

It was amazing to watch this guy test the ice, he would put a foot out, press, press, press then step forward.

Red Wing Shoes. . .for giants?

I have been to Red Wing, Minnesota many times but only this trip did I notice the shoes.

They are spread throughout town, outside different stores.

I imagine they chose shoes, over cows (New Glarus, Wisconsin) and lions (Appleton, Wisconsin) because they are home to Red Wing Shoes.

Although, I don’t understand why they didn’t choose crocks, since they are also home to Red Wing Pottery.

Maybe the crocks would catch the rain and snow.

Bet, you can’t tell which ones were my favorites.

I’m sure there are more yet to be discovered.
