Lunch, today with a good friend at Egg and I. She and I have been getting together every other week for decades.

Today, crossed the Mississippi twelve times with friend following his “Bridges of Hennepin County” bicycle route.

Sabo Bridge, Minneapolis, this afternoon.

Rainy day. A day for playing loud music, slow-braising lamb and root vegetables, and finally tidying my office.

Trippers in NYC, day 4 of 4. Walked alongside the Hudson River, then an obligatory walk up on the High Line.

Tonight, we go full throttle touristy. Going to “Kinky Boots” on Broadway. Mmm, what do I wear?

Today we walked through Philip Johnson’s lovely Glass House, New Canaan, CT, then took the train back to Manhattan.

Today, 120% tourist in Manhattan. I was privileged to catch Lady Liberty in Times Square checking the money supply.

Getting ready for the winter: blowing out the irrigation today.

Filled up the tank in our 1996 Honda Civic today. That’s the fourth time I’ve filled it up this year.

IDS Center today: walked through gorgeous Crystal Court. I’ll explore another Philip Johnson masterpiece this week.

My clockwork trainset had one of these. Thrilled to spot a “big-boy” level junction while cycling today.

Lazy day. Watched Dwight sift coriander seeds from the garden. I’ll cook with them in January to remind us of summer.

AC wrapped in polyethylene and duct tape. No, not a #walkerart installation; just me embracing the change of season.

It’s a damp grey day. A good day to write about a crane.
