Saint Paul - spring, Spring, SPRING







a perfect weather weekend..........15C today, hazy sun and 70 kph gusts...the rain and the next snow follow

Goodhue - Greg turns 57 or 75..........hmmm I forget!











Flora served a great dinner
Murray hid the cat
Greg as a haiku is tough

Mary gave us a challenge
I do need practice
You are seeing my efforts

Saint Paul - Danny Qu pondering that first US car..............

Duluth - Dawit does Duluth

















Spring break arrives. Dawit, out favorite Ethiopian, decides why go to the south and sun when you can head to Duluth and Two Harbors!
We arrived to a beautiful sunny day - and at least 40F.
The winds had blown in the ice pieces from Lake Superior into the Duluth shoreline. Despite all of Nancy's nervousness she led out out across the floating island to capture the amazing colors and hues created by the chips and the water and the reflection from the sun. Fortunately for all of us, the wind didn't change and we didn't float off to Michigan.
