All inside activities! Friday, July 17 After breakfast at the hotel, we drove to the Iron Range and visited the Minnesota Discovery Center in Chisholm. It was a pretty neat place, with many buildings to walk through, and a comprehensive history of the Iron Range. We learned so much about Finnish looms, unions, and mining. Amazing! ...
