Cafesjian's Carousel

Excerpt on back:
Cafesjian's Carousel - Saint Paul, Minnesota
Built in 1914 by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company, this carousel with its 
68 hand carved wooden horses delighted riders at the Minnesota State Fair
for 75 years. Community effort saved the carousel from auction in 1988. The carousel is named for its major financial donor. Volunteers operate it each summer at Saint Paul's Como Park.

Wow a nice card that came via swap-bot. Thanks to Jillyfish for this
fascinating piece of card explaining about the restoration.

Minnesota

Land of 10,000 lakes
Minnesota is a U.S. state in the Midwestern United States. Minnesota was carved out of the eastern half of the Minnesota Territory and admitted to the Union as the 32nd state on May 11, 1858. Known as the "Land of 10,000 Lakes", the state's name comes from a Dakota word for "clear water".

Thank you David for the typical sight of Minnesota. Awesome reflection too!!
