Nodded to Minerva on my way into Minneapolis Central Library today.

This weekend I’ve been doing my best to be in loco parentis. We had a blast.

Deafened everybody with the crossing bell, rode a real caboose, played with model trains. So did the boys.

Willow on running route today. Heard otherworldy squeaks when the breeze shifted ice forming on Lake of the Isles.

6-legged walker, Ver. 1. (Ver. 2 = tuning, symmetry.) Thank you @isogawastudio sensei.

Foraged for essential ingredient for the holidays at Lunds, Uptown. Pie crust will be from scratch–thanks, Dwight.

Peeked at a demo cardiac catheterization lab after discussing some of the data that goes through a facility like this.

Scooting down the spiral path at Gold Medal Park, this afternoon. Everywhere he scooted, people smiled.

Today, debugged my first Android App to control a LEGO Mindstorms shooterbot. Here’s my video.

Green Mill pizzas for impromptu family gathering, including 2 birthday boys (one 5 one 50), and a surprise guest.

Long shadows. Hit 57 degrees today: a day to be outside, exploring. Best to defer work and chores for another day.

Tonight, Skiing On Broken Glass at the Guthrie Theater.

If I could only bring one piece of electronic gear when traveling.

Gabbed all morning over coffee and croissants.

This afternoon discussed data architecture with engineers.

Warmed up on a cold night at Dakota Jazz Club with Minneapolis funk (New Congress) then Detroit soul (Dwele)
