So….when I’m “home” in Minneapolis, we usually skip the urban hides in favor of the park preserves or stuff beyond the big city. But I solved a puzzle or two that were staring at me from the little lake across the street and decided….it’s cold, windy and drizzly, perfect day to find stuff like that, let’s see what other p/g stuff I can try to find in the old ‘hood this morning.
I learned that….the Grain Belt Brewery is now one of the Minneapolis Public Libraries. The apartment near the U of M where two of my friends lived and I spent untold hours is still standing as is…in spite of all the yuppie stuff that’s gone in around there. There’s now a community garden near the cruddy empty lot where we used to put pennies on the tracks and wait for the trains to go by.
Later I’m taking Mom out to eat. I told her she has to sit in the car and ride shotgun while I drive around Rosedale to find some skirtlifters. There’s this challenge, you see…..GC54WYC I’m really surprised we weren’t closer than we are. When I ran the checker, we had 330 out of 360 degrees. We should be down by four or five before I head home tomorrow. [;)]
