It was time to leave St. Joseph and head back to West Yellowstone, Montana where we would again spend the summer working at The Yellowstone IMAX Theatre.
First, we wanted to take a detour up north to visit the home state of Mary Richards and Rose Nylund.
Minnesota welcomed us through bug-splattered windshield.
Dakotah Meadows RV Park is adjacent to the Mystic Lake Casino Hotel in the Minneapolis suburb of Prior Lake.
Our view of the lake's fountain reminded us vaguely of the dancing fountains of The Bellagio.

Marlon Visits St. Joseph, Missouri and Surrounding Areas
Marlon spent about a week in St. Joseph visiting with family.
He watched as his great-nephew Dillon participated in a training exercise for his Firefighting School.
They performed an automobile extrication.
Dillon's cousin, Tempe, was trying to decide whether to be a firefighter or a forensic anthropologist.
The Savannah Middle School has been torn down and new school was built across town.
Tempe pondered that this would be a good chance to try out archaeology too.
Besides the gymnasium, the school safe was about the only thing left standing of the old school. This is a picture of the gymnasium.
After a hard day firefighting, Dillon might want to spend some relaxing times at this bar formerly owned by his grandparents.

Figuring she should wait on the really hard careers, Tempe turned to the career of doe-eyed model with assistance from Marlon's brother, Alan.
She is currently working on perfecting her profession.

Marlon revisited Amazonia Elementary School where his early childhood education began.
Trina, Marlon's oldest sister, often sat upstairs in this building helping announce games at the baseball field. Marlon would keep score on the scoreboard, which is no longer standing.
The firehouse of Amazonia, Missouri can always use a few good persons.

The Georgia Agrirama
After surviving Florida's harsh winter, Marlon and his mom, Angie, headed to Missouri where Doug was completing a grueling tax season and Angie would be spending the summer.
On their way, they visited The Georgia Agrirama, Georgia's Museum of Agriculture and Historic Village in Tifton, Georgia. Luckily, the parking lot included full hookup rv sites.
Enjoy the pictures of The Georgia Agrirama.
This is the Tift House where the namesake of the town of Tifton lived.
