Last night (and, frankly, most nights):

Tonight: Pumpkin Gnocchi with Sage Butter Sauce.

On the bright side, this fine work of American craftsmanship will be my daily driver for a while.

Beautiful sunset at the Indigo Girls and Melissa Etheridge show at The Minnesota State Fair last night. Both were great but I’d never seen Melissa before and… Wow!

First Day of Kindergarten. First Day of Senior Year.


Senior photos were taken of Beatrix last night in The Secret Garden, an incredible private garden in our neighborhood (owned and maintained by friends). Beatrix has loved it since childhood. Many fond memories made here and now we’ve added another.
Me with my excellent exterior painting crew.


We had an amazing time at Hemker Zoo today. It’s actually on our way to our family cabin but had never bothered to check it out. Our friends Robert and Emily and Family convinced us otherwise and so glad they did. It was one of a kind.
The weekend begins…

Good night.
