Los Cabos Mexico - Sunshine heaven!

Another year at Cabo. A bit quieter but no less wonderful.
We enjoyed the sun, the water, the desert and all the amenities in between. Another year of ziplining and a great ride on the water with Javier.
We even needed code words if we had to think fast and take control of the situation...thanks for worrying about our lives Evan...
Millie and I continue to be great creatures of our habit to walk up and down the mountain on a daily basis...and find some alternative variations that take us off here and there to spots unknown or up for development. Clears our heads for the rest of the day if it does nothing else. And just hang with us one morning and all the worlds problems are resolved before we are done.

Saint Paul - over the top finish for the month of March

Floods subsiding, record warm days, things getting ready to bloom and no snow for the month - hasn't happened in 130 years. We missed April and jumped right to May.
Not often that I can say I have several bike rides in before April 1 - usually if I am brave I can get one in as long as I go with my winter wear on as well.
And partying a bit with Jim and Lynn Clare to finish off the month...perfect! Actually a new life showing up in several spots in downtown Saint Paul - good to see and enjoy.

Minneapolis - Karen's birthday dinner

We are so glad that Karen got herself moved to the Twin Cities. Now we get together to celebrate Jane and my birthday in February and we get to do it again to celebrate Karen's in March.
We have been friends forever.....high school and college stories we can't share on here. Every get together always includes great moments from our Winona State/St Teresa's days and leaves us laughing. And lots of great history since.

Saint Paul - Dawit the patient

Spring break is over.
Surgery complete and Dawit is on the mend.
Katy is getting ready to move to the next apartment.
John is apartment hopping among friends and hitting the books.
And it still hasn't snowed one time in the month of March....could be history making if we make until the end of the month.

Goodhue Minnesota - Greg Nixon - another birthday

Beautiful day. Wonderful hosts. Outstanding food. Lots of interesting, and often colored, conversations. After 36 years of practice we are all getting pretty good at this evening.
And Mary had new boots and had the urge to sing...always something new to the mix....and that accordion too.

Goodhue MN - Greg's birthday...the videos. OH MY!

Mary wanted to sing. Need I say anything more.

Saint Paul - the day before the flood crest

Drove by the Mississippi today and near downtown Saint Paul could see how high the water really was - higher tomorrow.
Pictures don't really show the change but some pretty good views of the city - despite the final grey gloom of winter. Enjoy!

NE Minneapolis - Mary is in for a visit

Mary came from Seattle for one of her regular visits. An evening of great laughs and plenty of good food in NE Minneapolis. She is getting back out before the cool and snowy weekend arrives.
