LaCrosse WI - Great summer night on the Mississippi River

















Pre-bike night in LaCrosse.  Beautiful day and evening and definitely a thriving spot along the Mississippi.  And gotta love Lovechild for a great dinner experience every time you get to town.

Great drive down along the river - what a beautiful spot on the map - over and over again.

Minneapolis MN - Another day but on foot this time

 







A beautiful Sunday morning.  So chose to walk in the central Minneapolis Area - hot and humid and sunny as well.  Followed several established and not so established or approved paths to enjoy the Mississippi River some many different directions.

Minneapolis MN - Biking season finally in a rhythmn

 



It has been a slow start to the biking season.  We have finally gotten going two weeks in a row on both Thursdays and Saturdays.  

The group gets smaller year to year but still a few of us, or find one or two more, to join the rides.  A whole lot less humid this AM than it was on Thursday, but still another hot humid day ahead.

Minneapolis MN - Another day, another event






 

Attending a new opening at the Midtown Global Market - always an interesting spot and an interesting neighborhood.  

Fortunately inside as the heat and humidity have settled in early this year.

Stillwater MN - Memorial Day BBQ

 





After another great day and another bike ride it was time to head off to Stillwater to finish off the long weekend with a family/friends BBQ.  

Timed it just right for the eating!   

And after almost 2 weeks of no rain and mostly perfect weather, especially for May, we have the heat staying the humidity rising and a chance for rain everyday going forward.  Timing was great this year for the long weekend.

Saint Paul MN - MN United Football Night - becoming a Loon

 











Finally, got myself up to the Loons new stadium...not quite so new but a great place to hang out for an evening for sure.  

Perfect weather weekend for Memorial Day Weekend - not sure we have ever had a weekend this nice - every single day.  So best get out and enjoy all the things you can. 

Got a nice early season bike ride in as well - a 3 ride week almost another 25 miles to add to the total after the Saturday ride.
