HIGHLIGHTS:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>This is a half day trip to the old Twin Cities Brick Company, now called Lilydale Regional Park, which will look at Ordovician Rocks containing lots and lots of fossils.\u00a0\u00a0Some of the fossils found are crinoids, corals, brachiopods, Bryozoans and for a few lucky hunters,\u00a0TRILOBITES<\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0We can also look at some of the remains of the Brick Company, with a few souvenir bricks.\u00a0\u00a0This will be for all ages, great one for kids.\u00a0\u00a0Adults supervision of children required, Rog and I am not good baby sitters.\u00a0\u00a0This will start at 9 AM and you may leave whenever you feel covered enough in mud.\u00a0\u00a0Good hiking boots required, a stressful climb will be part of the days work.\u00a0<\/p>\n

WHEN AND HOW<\/em><\/strong>:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0If you go through St. Paul, either Wabasha or Robert Streets will take you to Plato Blvd. Take Plato to its end. However, do not go onto Water Street. The Hudson Street guide is incorrect. Water Street is a dead end. Instead go on Plato until it comes to a “T” at Justus Ohage Drive (on some Hudson Road Maps this is listed as “Water Street” ). Turn left and go 1 mile south, under the High Bridge, to the sign marked “Lilydale Regional Park”.\u00a0
Or, if you are coming up north on 35E, you may exit at Minnesota Highway 13, just before the river, and at the top of the ramp head east (turn right if you have come northbound on 35E), and you will see Lilydale Drive about 50 yards from the ramp. Go 2.1 miles on this road and you will see Lilydale Regional Park, after you pass under an abandoned railroad bridge.<\/p>\n
