Did you go to Grace? Your post made me think back to that whole area. I still remember that long-gone putt-putt course across from the Winona Queen and heading town to the Flagpole for some ice cream.

I'd love to see the old timey ball games played there. We are typically there around the 4th of July (at least the past several years), run in the Firecracker 5k, enjoy the festivities and the fireworks. Any chance they play any of those ball games around the 4th?
