The painting in the men’s room at the restaurant where we were having dinner was upside down. We accused our 12-year-old nephew and his friend of the nefarious deed. (It was screwed to the wall because people kept turning it.)

Comfort Food, Snowy Day
Fried egg with runny yolk sandwich at Mill City Museum, grey snowy day, life’s good.
The Best Croissants
Continued exploring University Avenue with a friend. Visited a modest Vietnamese bakery for one of the best almond croissants ever. I was experiencing a consequence of a convoluted path from French colonialism to skilled Vietnamese refugees and their offspring.
Contrail Over PSP
Contrail over Palm Springs PSP. Time to go home.
Climbing
Walked to a trailhead two blocks from the main drag of Palm Springs, then started climbing.
Sunrise at MSP
The sun rose over MSP while we waited to board our flight to Salt Lake City, en route to Palm Springs, California.
Change of Plan
Airside at MSP. Learned our connecting flight was delayed, and wouldn’t arrive at our destination until almost midnight Pacific. Changed the flights at no cost via the Delta app to tomorrow morning, then rode the LRT back home.
Specialized Businesses
Walked along University Avenue, a road from Minneapolis to St. Paul, looking at old buildings and specialized businesses. Spotted a reptile store, a bartending school, and a cat furniture showroom. The former Mutual Service Insurance building in the reflection was built in 1956.
Winter Walk
Walked our running route.
Haircut x 2
Emily cut my hair then Dwight’s. She’s been cutting our hair for thirty years.
