November

Yes, yes. November. What a grim chill wondrous month.


Towelocracy



This election is so big, even the towels are voting.



City of Lakes



Unseasonable warmth leads us out on a walk around Lake Harriet. Its not every year you can hang laundry on the line in November, or enjoy the (ever-earlier) sunset by the water.



Amber



Beer by candlelight, winter is coming!



Babylegocracy



The youth are pretty excited about the election.
The next day I was talking to some Mormon guys and one asked who had won the election. I said, "Obama!" He then asked, "Did he get the popular or the electoral votes?"
How strange that they are different things.
"Both" I replied, gladly.



Wedding Gift



All I will say is that this wheelbarrow contains 100 tacos.




Moo-juice



Signs of a mis-spent morning.



Truth in the Streets



And never forget it.



November



Crossing the river each day I am awestruck. Trestles, smoke stacks, walkways. Bright snow fell from a sunny sky. This city is stunning in November. Certainly it holds itself well in the dumb swell of summer, briskly suits itself in autumn, but it is winter! Winter fits Minneapolis like a glove.



Bohemian



Its like one of those Greek Isles calendars, but Midwestern.



Cornucopia



Holidays are all about being with family and friends...



Trellis



Never will I tire of light on buildings.




Grey Milwaukee



This city is all white and pale gray.
Oh, and this is the art museum designed by some fancy guy by the name of Calatrava.




Interactive History



Solomon Juneau was the founder of Milwaukee, which is pretty cool. He was also the first mayor, first postmaster, and started the Milwaukee Journal (now the Journal-Sentinel). His nephew founded Juneau, Alaska.
Man, those were the days. Any old guy could just up and start a city.




House




This may or may not be a picture of a ghost...



ALMOST DONE WITH 2008! WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD????

Stay tuned, gentle viewer. Stay tuned.
