About Wayside Minnesota

Wayside Minnesota is a flickr group for sharing photos of wayside rests (past and present), historical markers, plaques, monuments, and scenic overlooks along highways and byways in the great State of Minnesota.

This group is not meant for the giant walleyes, ears of corn, Paul Bunyan statues and other roadside oddities found all over Minnesota. There is a Separate Group on flickr for those. It is also not meant for general Minnesota scenery shots. There are several groups on flickr for those. The intent of this group is to see roadside points of interest past and present - things that the CCC or WPA may have built, pull over scenic overlooks, roadside monuments and historical markers - stuff like that, yah?
