Had to drive today to avoid lightning. So, I wrote about a walk through Northeast Minneapolis.

A Cluster of Concerts
3 concerts in 5 days. Today, concert #2: Cantus vocal ensemble at St. Mark’s Episcopal Cathedral, Minneapolis.
Distractions
At dinner the nephews took my phone and Dwight’s phone. That assured us a good conversation with their parents.
Minnesota Orchestra
3 concerts in 5 days. Today, concert #1: Minnesota Orchestra at Orchestra Hall, Minneapolis.
Target Run
Went to a bricks-and-mortar store.
Freeways
Cycled through the grittier side of Minneapolis. It was good to be on a cycle path, and not on a freeway.
Bike on a Train
Rode light rail to Fort Snelling, then cycled both sides of the Mississippi via St. Paul.
Bombay Bistro
Walked to Bombay… …Bistro, downtown Minneapolis for lunch with two former colleagues.
LEGO Manual Transmission
Built this transmission: 3-speed, stick-shift, clutch. I built it for myself but I will demonstrate it to my nephews.
Cheap Flight to Japan
Got up early to book flights from southern Japan when they opened up today. Round-trip: 70,000 frequent flyer miles.
