Gratitude

Being thankful and grateful can happen whenever people who care for each other are gathered together....and sometimes even when they're not.

Saint Paul Gives

Saint Paul waited HOURS in line this morning to be given the honor of driving meals to people who otherwise couldn't afford it.  Who cares if the temps outside were unseasonably cold and the wait was long and the gym was HOT and people's backs hurt and the warm gym started to stink!  What mattered was that Saint Paul made a difference to a whole lotta folks!  Happy Thanksgiving Best Place I've Ever Lived.....Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!!

The Guthrie

Technically in Minneapolis, this picture was too good not to post.  Yellow tinted windows give everything a magical glow.

Winner winner chicken dinner!

While I don't advise shooting from a moving vehicle (yes, I was driving and shooting...naughty!!!) sometimes you capture pure magic, like this shot of the Xcel Energy Center where the Minnesota Wild play all their home games.  West 7th and Kellogg.

Lancer Service Auto Care

Just kitty corner behind The Gopher Bar is Lancer Auto.  Best freakin' auto shop EVER!  Smart guys, treat the whole car, remember my name every time, OUTSTANDING customer service.  Not the cheapest out there, but their guys aren't just slumming it until something better comes along.  Their employees are passionate about auto repair and customer service, and that wins my business every time.

Life is just a bowl full of......doughboys!

General Mills (including Pillsbury), Target and 3M are all companies that are headquartered here in the Twin Cities Metro area.

It's because we rock so hard here.  And best of all?  The cold keeps the riff raff out so only the heartiest of the hearty survive up here.  Brilliant!
