The suggestions in this book are just that: suggestions. Some experiences—such as a canoe trip in the Boundary Waters or a visit to Hawk Ridge—are unmatchable anywhere else in the state. Others can be replicated. If you are not near the museum, park or site that we highlight, find a similar place near you. Read our suggestions, and be sure to pay special attention to each “Bonding and bridging.” This is how we believe you can tie your visit to an important life lesson. Take advantage of our advice or come up with your own, but use each opportunity to its fullest!

We do not advocate that you become the “wallet” or the “chauffeur.” What we want you to consider is an active participation in friendship and sharing that is enriched by love. We want you to receive the respect of an elder, to exhibit the wisdom of your age and experience, and to enjoy the wonderful love that can flow between generations.

One of the themes of this book is that things change. This is true for everything, including our state’s attractions. They sometimes close, renovate or move. When in doubt, CALL BEFORE YOU LEAVE.
