If any of you haven't even been to Franconia you've been missing out. These are sculptures on a grand scale. They make the Walker sculpture park look like a walk in the park.

This place is open to the public always, but its events are extra special. So, if you don't make it to this event, at least schedule a time when you check out the park itself. Also there are good camping and hiking spots in both Taylors Falls and St. Croix Falls, although except the dam, there aren't actually any waterfalls. It's worth a trip, and taking the Wisconsin route is faster and a bit more scenic.
