The Moondance Inn serves dessert at breakfast on weekends. Yum. But Red Wing offers much more in terms of dining. For example, check out The Norton’s Downtown & The Crazy Cat Lounge, The Staghead, Jimmy’s Pub at the St. James Hotel, Fiesta Mexicana, The Harbor Bar for Jamaican food, Bev’s Cafe for down home cooking, and the list goes on. If you travel on your tummy then Red Wing is a great stop.

Yesterday I watched 7 bald eagles fishing the Mississippi. They were about 75 feet from me. What a spectacular sight. We are reaching the peak of their migration in this area. Visit and enjoy.
