East Side Freedom Library

Cycled over to St. Paul’s East Side with a friend to visit another Carnegie Library: East Side Freedom Library. Formerly a public library, this institution is a nonprofit with a mission to “inspire solidarity, advocate for justice and work toward equity for all.”

Ol’ Man River

Cooked chicken and veggies on the grill while… Ol’ man river/That ol’ man river/He don’t say nothing/But he must know something/Cause he just keeps rolling/He keeps rolling along/Rollin’ along. The rest of the lyrics are brutal. Showboat premiered in 1927.

Canadian Forest Fires

Watched another dramatic sunset. Unfortunately, the effect is enhanced by smoke from Canadian forest fires.

Ramen Refuel

Cycled a loop through North and Nordeast Minneapolis with a friend visiting from the UK. Refueled with ramen at Tori 44.
