Saint Paul MN - Danny Qu graduates and Petar represents Serbia very well!












Danny Qu finishes up.
As the president of Macalester can be quoted, this is the worst weather day in the history of graduation at Macalester College. It was 45F, raining, windy and it felt like snow would be arriving any minute. But the show must go on.
Petar joined the graduation ceremonies as well as the flag bearer for Serbia.

A bit of drama the day before, but Danny looked the part of the perfect young graduate on Saturday afternoon.

Stillwater MN - Easter Sunday 2011 and the sun finally came out


 























Finally a beautiful sunny spring day. And what could be better that to be on the lake enjoying the sun and all the conversation.
We got a slow start with the Spring Festival and ongoing parties at Mac yesterday. But filled the day once we got going. Danny and Davide gave Maria a bit of a canoe ride on the lake. And we checked out Stillwater and a few miles of Wisconsin before heading home.
First bbq of the new year for me. Ready for many more days like today and the warmer ones that follow.

White Bear Lake - Gathering for Wally











Our good friend Wally needed our help and it turned out to be a great evening and a mini John Ryan reunion.
I was too busy talking and am relying on some photos from friends...

Saint Paul MN - it's back....more snow





No bike ride on Saturday. We woke up to snow on the ground once again. We jumped another notch to the 4th most snow in Twin Cities history. Lucky us.
Rumor has it more on the way this week....
