Obama in Minneapolis

At a recent stop in Minneapolis, President Obama stopped by Matt's Bar for a Jucy Lucy; considered to be one of the best burgers in town. I haven't been for a few years, but the Jucy Lucy, with it's molten hot cheese hidden inside the burger patty, can be quite a shock when one is not expecting it. I learned the hard way when I burned my tongue on the first one I ever tried. I've learned to be more careful.

35W

I took this shot from the 46th Street bridge over 35W. I remember crossing the Diamond Lake Road bridge (54th Street) as a kid and watching the cars and looking at the same view although it was quite a different skyline back in the 70s.

Skyline from the Stone Arch Bridge

Recently on Facebook my friend Ken posted this photo of the skyline taken from the Stone Arch Bridge. Great shot.

Anodyne




Have already made a couple of trips to Anodyne in the week I've been off of school for summer vacation.  Recently I found  that Anodyne was sold to new owners but will still remain open under a new name. Dale thinks the menu items will remain the same. Hopefully because this place makes great food. They also make the best mocha I've ever had - never too sweet.
