Shopped at a place that has always welcomed people like me. 30 years ago LGBT people were refused entry to the USA.

Today, grateful for our first thirty years together.

Cycled past the Guthrie Theater where we will “explore exile, borders and the displacement of peoples” (“Refugia”) this evening.

Posted How I Tunneled through the Great Firewall of China.

Paused outside the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden where I witnessed the power of protest to change minds: “Scaffold” will go tomorrow.

Got new walking shoes. Made plans to wear them out quickly.

Cycled in pursuit of stories. In 1888 the architect of this home patented skyscraper construction concepts, calling them “cloudscrapers.”

Our flag, Memorial Day 2017.

View from my tablet, reading on the porch. I pulled a muscle jogging this morning, so reading replaced cycling as this afternoon’s activity.

Filled gaps among perennials with annuals. I aimed for the subtlety of a chocolate box lid.

Peered through a construction fence at this week’s new arrival: a blue rooster. The renovated Minneapolis Sculpture Garden opens next week.

Cycled through Nordeast Minneapolis.

Took a selfie at the optical store wearing my new glasses.

Posted An Empty Chair.

Took a picture on my cycle ride through Downtown.

Cycled with a friend in search of unique Minneapolis, including Red Cedar Lane, a leafy street of old architect-designed homes.
