Parks & Nature
Trails along both sides of the Mississippi River are wonderful. My favorite stretch is the east side of the river between Marshall Street and Ford Parkway. Don't stay on the high-road paved bike trails- park the bike and get onto the hiking trails partways down the riverbanks!

Arts & Culture
Just across a two-story bridge from the apartment, this museum is small enough to be enjoyable and not overwhelming, cool-looking from the outside for a selfie, and best of all, totally free!
