The Roger Maris Museum

(Pictures Of Our Visit To The Roger Maris Museum in Fargo, North Dakota - November 14, 2007)

Roger Maris Museum Kate and I had dinner at the Granite City Brewery in Fargo and I was so excited to visit the Roger Maris Museum. Now it seemed some locals were somewhat "down" on the museum, being that it's fairly small and located inside a shopping mall, but it is nevertheless a very special place that pays tribute to a great man and New York Yankee.

    One Item Purchased At The Mall
    Norway Shirt
    Visiting the Roger Maris Museum was meaningful enough, but this event also needs to be highlighted as well. Upon walking around the mall, we spotted a Scandinavian gift shop and I purchased this stunning Norwegian shirt. Yeah baby! I have two very amazing friends in Norway who will hopefully be visiting Colorado next year. This picture is for them!!! :)
