Exploring Northfield - Day 36



After sleeping in until 6:30 on Sunday, I spent the day exploring Northfield on foot on my own.  Northfield is a college town with Carlton College and St. Olaf College ( a good Lutheran institution) both located within a mile of downtown.  I started with breakfast at the Blue Coffee Cafe downtown, walked the grounds of Carlton and then walked through St Olaf.  I ended my tour with a second breakfast at the Olaf Cafe near the campus.  Both campuses were full of beautiful old stone buildings similar to the chapels at each campus shown in the pictures.  Carlton's is the white one on top and St Olaf's is below.  It was a delightful clear sunny day for a walk as you can see.
