Posted A Constant Supply of Fresh Spices.

With the Super Bowl about to start, it was time to walk to the Lagoon to see a good movie, Hidden Figures.

Netted $256 for Doctors Without Borders via eBay from camera gear that had been hiding in a cupboard for 20+ years.

On my Lake of the Isles jog today: Icehenge setup. The wooden forms will be removed and the resultant ice columns illuminated by candles.

Toured the billion dollar US Bank Stadium. I saw some of the thousands of feet of pipes for the centralized beer distribution system.

Colder weather = 15% discount on my Joe’s Brrr Bar today.

Joined 5,000 fellow protesters outside the Federal Courthouse, downtown Minneapolis. “No hate, no fear, refugees are welcome here.”

I prefer to buy locally, but today I chose to #buystarbucks.

Posted When Fear Rules.

Our sunroom lived up to its name today.

Listed 35mm film cameras and a zoom lens on eBay. The few dozen dollars they’ll fetch will go directly to Doctors Without Borders.

Jogged past the “Mary Tyler Moore House.” In 1973 the owner put up an “Impeach Nixon” sign to discourage filming of more establishing shots.

Two buses and two trains and we found fish and chips. Everything was made from scratch, including a piece of salt water taffy.

Walked on fresh snow through Nordeast Minneapolis.

I heard no prohibited words this morning as I helped students to grapple with English.

I’ve paced the halls of Methodist Hospital daily for two months. Nothing would function without recent immigrants, constantly cleaning.
