Winter Highlights Along the St. Croix River
Escape to the peace of small towns and wide-open spaces during a weekend exploring the St. Croix River between Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Lucia Dagen
In mid-December, the Gammelgarden museum hosts Lucia Dagen -- Lucia Day, which is all about celebrating light during dark December. The day begins with a predawn, candlelit church service (entirely in Swedish) inside Gammelgarden's 1856 log church, followed by a breakfast of traditional foods such as lefse, lucia katta buns, pickled herring and spritz cookies. It's an amazingly peaceful, moving way to spend a frigid winter morning.
