Moon Over Minneapolis

Full moon today.

In Honor of Prince

Nye's

Nye's Polonaise closed recently. Although not a regular, I had quite a fondness for the place which goes back a number of years. My most recent visit was a notable and fun high school reunion which Dale and I attended together. 

Cold

Despite the fact that it's been cold as Hell lately, there's a serenity to winter that I can still appreciate. This scene is of Minneahaha Creek between 28th Avenue and Hiawatha on 46th Street.

Minneapolis Holiday Market

The Minneapolis Holiday Market is this year simply known as Holidazzle. Dale and I checked it out and saw Santa Claus wandering about. 

Uptown Theater

Stopped at Lund's in Uptown after church today. Snapped a shot of the theater. I haven't been in since it's been remodeled.

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.
