Bummer to hear those who can’t attend! Hopefully we’ll catch you at the next one!
For those attending… here’s a sneak peak at my baked goods I’m bringing! Iced pumpkin cookies, ginger/molasses cookies, and cinnamon apple bread. 😋

Dang Sharon! What time can we start eating??? 🤤
Quit teasing Sharon.I may have to be on the road at 5 to get some of those.
Hope to see you guys over there tomorrow. I have to work in the morning but hope to finish up early. Not sure if I have much else to bring other than beer. Will have the boat to.
For those looking for other things to do in the area Osceola has a train ride, water fall to hike down to, PYs is a decent bar and good burgers. North of Osceola on the MN side is the Franconia sculpture garden. Its free and great place for the kids to run around. For those with boats running up river to the cliffs at Rock island is fun. To the south is where the Osceola train bridge crosses the river. There is also a large heron rookery down that way. The nests where full of birds a few weeks back and still should be.
Think Ill be running solo so if anyone wants to go for a boat ride let me know.
Nice to meet some new IDOers and catch up old friends! 
Fun day at the river. 
Big Thank You to Sharon for putting these GTG together.

Anyone have pictures? How many attendees? Names?
Sorry it was the “SWMBO and me”s 45th anniversary.
This was a trip back in time!!
We shared an evening out amongst all those that were in “Prom” attire! There were multiple group tables where we were!
Just a few from IDO have I ment, someday I WILL get to meet more. I really hope it went successful with multitudes attending!
Thanks everyone for a fantastic time yesterday! Good food, great company, and it felt nice to have the sun eventually came out in the afternoon! I always enjoy getting to chitchat and shoot the breeze with IDO guys and great meet some new guys too!
I look forward to coordinating another gathering sooner than later! 😁
In attendance we had myself, Pailofperch, Steve Root and wife Mona, Jon Jordan, Lost, Mr.Beads, Mike Westman, Michael Keehr, and then CBMN stopped by later in the day and we didn’t get a photo! Next time! 😃📸

A lot of driving, but totally worth it! It was fun meeting everyone!
Losts’ dog Taconite, and John Jordans dog Bear were fun to see also! Wish more could have been there!
Next Time guys!!!
I feel terrible for not getting there, I was just heading out and grand daughter came with the great grand babies, time is short enough without missing family time.
No worries to those who weren’t able to attend! It’s been suggested that I coordinate more than just one of these a year so I’ll plan for a couple more this year yet. 
If anyone has location suggestions or fun ideas shoot me a message or text and I’ll keep them noted for future use!

Happy anniversary, Denny and congrats on 45 years! That’s so wonderful!
@pailofperch So that WAS prom people we were seeing in Stillwater then! For some reason I thought prom was in May for most schools.
It was a great time meeting you all, and Tac had the best of days with new people who would throw a stick for him. Almost made him tired enough to stop jumping for every cast while in the boat later that afternoon. Almost…
