Totally forgot. I'll do that for our next try, which I think might be the Bell Museum. Or maybe we'll do Science. Hey Erin,

Gallery! It kills me that the MIA, of all places, would choose the word “gallery” to describe the sad little room with no art in it. Gallery!

Here's an awesome silver lining though: you can get free tickets to almost any museum you want to go to in the Twin Cities (well, except for the Children's Museum, which you probably would have liked in this case) if you've got a library card. You can get two free tickets to most museums and four passes for some just by checking out one of the Museum Adventure Passes. They're next to the checkout desk, usually. They last for a week, and if you and your husband both have cards, you can easily get the four free passes you need. Here are the details: http://www.hclib.org/pub/info/MuseumAdventurePassFAQ.cfm I have used this four or five times, and this weekend, I'm going to the Arboretum for free because of it. Yay! Sounds horrible!
