New York NY - Some blustery spring days





















 

On the edge of spring but definitely a winter chill in the air for a quick trip in and out of NYC.  

Expected some security issues and was even more than super early for my flight and had tram issues that were crazy on arrival and almost as crazy this AM.  Security, the real worry, was its usual slow moving speed - just about normal time for me today.

Montevideo MN - Puzzle Competition Night

 




Lindsay got her team together and we came in fourth in our first jigsaw puzzle competition.  Fun, fun night all the way around.  Seems I am already signed up for the next one.

Chicago IL - The fog and the rain

 








An opportunity for a quick trip to Chicago - hit the dense fog, grey gloom and rain.  Got out before the real storms and tornadoes zoomed on through.  Despite all the weather, always great to hang out in Chicago.

Minneapolis MN - Blustery walking morning

 



We had sunshine but the wind was sure whipping us around on our weekly Saturday trek.  A few new bits of street art have popped up along the way.

Fort Lauderdale FL - 80 plus every day and leaving as the cool comes in












I lucked out and got absolutely wonderful days for this short visit.  Not even that much humidity.  87F on the ride to the airport.  But as I was leaving the wind was picking up and the start of a cool week was coming in.
