Saint Paul MN - Wild Turkeys in the neighborhood

When I drive in to work I usually drive along the river.  It is not unusual to run in to flocks of wild turkeys along River Road.
At the UofM there are 20 or more covering the road and surrounding area.  They take their time doing what they want to do - and we all wait.
This morning as I was looking out the window I noticed that 6 wild turkeys were making their way up Macalester Street.  My house is a good distance from the river or even from heavily wooded area - one of the busiest streets in the city is a block away.  That didn't stop them.  As usual they took their time doing what they were going to do.

Goodhue Minnesota - Number 65 for Mr Nixon

39 or 40 times this party has happened - I have had the opportunity to enjoy many of them.
Anther year, another party.  And this year we all got trained on another way to separate the yolk from the white part of an egg - who knew.

Toronto Ontario Canada - Same cold as MN

Short trip to Toronto and the same cold wave covered Minnesota and all of Ontario.  At least there was lots of sun.
Like most of the cities in the world, it is ever changing and getting taller and taller.

Pepin WI - partying with the LePoudre's

Great sunny day to drive down to Pepin.
Lots of fun and hearty conversation.
And updated my cupboards with "pickles by Sonia" - coming soon to your plate at a dinner at 247 Mac.
Thanks S for a fun night.

Tokyo Japan - one more sunny day

Back for one more day of meetings before I head back to MSP.
Got another nice sunny and warm one.
Spring is arriving all over Tokyo.  Always enjoy sitting on the stoop in front of the hotel waiting for the bus that gets me to the airport.

Seoul South Korea - A bit of tradition as I head to my gate

Seoul South Korea - a few extra minutes

The sun came out as we drove through the mountains to our meeting this morning.  Beautiful drive - a bit of snow scattered on the tops.
And we got back with a bit of time to wander the neighborhood a bit before I hopped on the bus for the trek back to Tokyo.
Big place.  Had never really thought about how big Seoul is - 16th largest in the world.

Seoul South Korea - First time out of the airport

I have flown through Seoul several times over the years to get somewhere else.  This time I finally worked my way through the airport and came to the heart of the city.
Interesting "jello dessert" type of thing in the plane that you suck out of a tube as a new experience as well.
Holiday when I arrived but you sure wouldn't know it by the traffic on the roads - wow.
Cold and rainy and it was dark when I arrived.  And off to my meetings first thing and it appears another gloomy day so don't expect I will see much this trip.
