there were halloween signs at the airport when i picked up the rental car. one of them said 'broom hair, don't care'. there was a wait but i knew better than to complain, it is a part of life. once it was done there was just one stop for me, the post office. nothing to pick up, no surprise when there had been no orders lately but there might be other things in the box. i made it to new ulm just after midday. first stop was taco john's as it was lunchtime. then on to the middle of town. i went to the research library first, since i knew it was closing early. decent number of books there but what i liked more was an art gallery a floor below it, second floor. hadn't seen anything above first floor, which has a bar and gift shop. there was an artwork called 'trainwreck' that was catchy. i had some popcorn and apple strudel in this area, also did the ax throwing. it was five dollars for five minutes, hard to beat the price. the ax stuck to the target only once but it was nice i finally tried this. got to the photo booth just as it was closing, got pictures sent to me by text so still hopeful i can print them somewhere. saw a puppet show, a variation on 'little red riding hood' that had appearances by bert and ernie as well. had some ice cream, made it to german park to find my brick and do the gravity rail swing. and saw the linus statue in sleepy eye. made a brief stop at turner hall, then on to the hotel at the edge of town. had the evening meal there with a bottle of schell's deer brand beer. saw some of the narren in a concert hall, near the end of the set of one of the scheduled bands. when i got back home i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 6 cents.
