Oh, I feel bad. I've left all you faithful readers out of a few weeks of awesomeness. My bad.
Let's see here - - Back in September, I participated in a station event called "Feeshorama." (It's an '-orama' so you know it's good.) A bunch of us got on canoes and fished down the Mississippi River just north of town. What a perfect day it was. Not too hot, yet not too chilly. Good company and lots of relaxing time.
I'm apparently a bad angler. I lost about 5 jigs and didn't catch even one fish. But the delicious hotdogs and gorgeous river made it all worthwhile.
A couple days later, I got a ticket to a Wild preseason game. YAY Hockey!
They crushed St. Louis 6-0 and there was a good fight. Awesome. I taught Heather all about the finer rules of hockey.
This past weekend I got to play tourist in my hometown. My friend Katy came up from Tulsa for a short vacation and to run the 10 mi race on marathon day. Here she is just before the finish line. She'd hate me if she knew I posted this photo... Don't tell her.
All I had to do was drop her off and pick her up. I did really enjoy watching the marathoners. Maybe someday I'll be able to do one myself.
Actually, those are 10-milers, but you get the idea. Besides the running, Katy and I traveled all over. We drove up to a cute town on the St. Croix river. We hopped over to Wisconsin because Katy had never been. So here we are in Wisconsin... at a liquor store... cause there is little else in Wisconsin.
And it's a good thing she came. Without her, the giant cherry just might have fallen off the giant spoon. She saved the day.
Apparently there's a lot to do in Minnesota. I had no idea.
