Saint Paul MN - Snowy February




We got 12 inches earlier in the month and two 6 inchers in 3 days.  Was starting to look like a light snow year and now it is everywhere. 
Warm week ahead so less by the weekend.

Saint Paul MN - Birthday Party once again



















Moved the venue for the annual birthday dinner to my place this year.  Dan got a better offer, once again, so I was a solo celebrator. 
Another cold night but plenty warm inside.  One of our bigger crowds.

Minneapolis MN - Superbowl Sunday LII














Sunny but a cold Superbowl Sunday in the Twin Cities.
Decided to head over to check out all the action one more time.  Took the train to the designated check in point at the U and switched over to the bus - all organized and very efficient. 
Met up with a group of Patriot fans in the bus and guided them through the skyway to their destination.  Then met up with some Eagle fans and wandered with them off to their destination.  And then again, and again.  It just seemed easier and easier to just walk them to where they wanted to be. 
Got back to the Saint Paul side before the protestors started slowing things down.

Saint Paul MN - Snow walk




A snowy Saturday walk this week.  We started in downtown Saint Paul and headed up to the Eastside and back.  Warm enough but slippery snow - so we slid around a bit as we made our way.
And treats at the Buttered Tin - nothing better....
Even met a Superbowl visitor looking for ideas and directions.
