Today, we did a 37-minute walk to downtown Edina to check out the retail center of this area. The walk took us through some very nice neighborhoods and a park. After checking out the downtown section, we did some shopping at a Lunds and Byerlys grocery store, a very nice local chain that we learned about during our summer sit in St. Paul. We found groceries for dinner as well as locally made gifts for future homeowners, and have determined to return another night for other meals as there was too much to choose from.
One of nice amenities for where we are staying are the number of pedestrian overpasses over the highway that divides “our” side of Edina from the other side. Today’s walk took us over one of these overpasses. One of the sites we are noticing in the neighborhoods and retail areas are the lovely evergreen based arrangements.
one of the many, many gorgeous big homes in the area.
and an ice skating rink.
Just an example of the lovely homes, too many to photograph.
