<p>The last link of the <a href="http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/state_trails/paul_bunyan/index.html" target="_blank">Paul Bunyan Trail </a>will be open for riding for the Memorial Day weekend.  The long awaited completion of this trail has finally arrived.  You will find <a href="http://www.embracingpines.com" target="_blank">Embracing Pines Bed &amp; Breakfast </a>on the trail and  open for business with the new shuttle service that is available.  The shuttle will be able to pick up your belongings and move them to the next destination, or if you are wanting to ride out and be brought back, or taken out and ride home that can all be done.  <a href="http://www.embracingpines.com" target="_blank">Embracing Pines Bed &amp; Breakfast </a> is very near the crossroads of the <a href="http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/state_trails/heartland/index.html" target="_blank">Heartland Trail </a>and the <a href="http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/state_trails/paul_bunyan/index.html" target="_blank">Paul Bunyan Trail</a>, so you will be able to ride out 4 different directions without riding the same part of the trail any direction.  We serve a great breakfast, and treats when you return from your ride.  We will try to accommodate your plan.</div>

Watch for updates reguarding the trail, and the shuttle packages.  &#8230;..and pictures!</p>
