Bicycle Trip at Okoboji and Little Swan Lake Winery

We picked the most beautiful autumn day to take our bike up to Okoboji to ride their bike trail. The colors were perfect for me, still a lot of green, but patches of reds, oranges, and yellows. We had lunch at a restaurant on the lake and enjoyed good food and a nice view.



Close by is the Little Swan Lake Winery. We had to go. This lady serving me is from Australia and her accent gave her away. She had quite a story to tell, and she made sure we got some good samples to decide which bottle to buy. I decided on one with a nice label with a nice swan on it.



This is their old elevator on their property which they have converted to a bed and breakfast. Interesting.
They also had buffalo on their property and sold buffalo meat which we did buy.

We also visited Little Swan Lake which is right next to the winery property. It is not developed. I didn't see any swans either. Maybe it's in the shape of a swan. : )
