Seasons Greetings From My Building

I thought I would let my fellow residents' door decorations brighten your holiday season. These were the best...lots of wreaths didn't make the cut. My favorite was the blue one.

My gut tells me I can do this for every holiday too.

World's Biggest Boot...

...resides in Red Wing, MN. This is inside RedWing Boot Co.'s Factory Store and Outlet in beautiful downtown Red Wing, a stone's throw from the mighty Mississippi too. If you ever drive to the Twin Cities, take the "long route" from LaCrosse/I-90 up the west bank (MN-side) of the river.

Mid-November Commute

A sunny morning like this in mid-November is not to be taken lightly. The ride in was very nice and I was happy to see a large buck in the park had the same thought as me. I think he could have throttled me if he wanted to.

newest (re)addition to the family
