A friend dropped by with goodies she’d made, including a wonderful pie. Chocolate on the lower crust, life’s good.

Walked out, less than 24 hours after surgery. I’ll be back, though: surgical margins were not quite clear of tumor.

Post-op view from my bed, Methodist Hospital. Grateful for friends and family, grateful for kind and competent care.

Explored the unfamiliar:–North Minneapolis trails–Lunch, Betty Danger’s Country Club (I didn’t ride the Ferris).

Cycled to St. Paul.

Posted Steps to Fitness After Prostate Cancer.

Cycled a loop through Nordeast and North Minneapolis. Stopped for the usual excellent dinner at Victory 44.

Paused at Merlin’s Rest Pub for essential nutrients.

Walked to the Jungle Theater to see Le Switch.

Satisfied my craving for authentic Mexican food.

Plenty parking for cars, no rack for my bike. I submitted a suggestion that a bike rack would be a welcome addition.

Walked my bicycle through Mill Ruins Park. Early Minneapolis by the Mississippi.

On our cycle ride: sausage rolls. Our lunch venue was closed for Independence Day, a British-style pub was open.

Posted Small Experiences on a Big Journey.

Red, white, and blue: a little bit of England for our Independence Day table. Travel influences choices.

Paused at Lake Harriet for breakfast, then continued cycling.
