We all had a good time.
How’s that?
Okay, Michelle and Brian were good hosts. We went to M’s favorite place, The King and I, for some Thai food. We saw the rhymes-with-blocker art museum and sculpture garden. M posed for us by some DIY snow sculptures. I forgot my camera, so we had to make do with M’s Polaroid, and Cyn’s point & shoot. :-( I mean, Polaroids are fun, but with all the great scenery and sunlight and friends I felt kind of lost without my camera (and I won't bore you with the list of eveything else I forgot to bring). Burgers at Joe’s garage (but I didn’t get to have the Lagavulin there - though the Balvennie 21 yr. at King & I was good). We ate toasted peanut butter and banana sammidges at Michelle’s tiny but charmingly cluttered apartment. I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical about the toasting part, but they were very good. Let’s see... what else... Johnny the Homicidal maniac comic books. (Hey, I forgot, I was going to play a couple hands of Lunch Money with you!) We walked. A lot. In the cold. The first night was exceedingly cold. After that, it was just cold enough to numb the ears. We walked to the K & I (twice), to the Rhymes-With, to the drugstore, to Joe’s, to several closed restaurants. Today’s walk was the nicest, because it was not-so-cold, and we got to see all the nice architecture. Minneapolis is a pretty city. So even thought it took us half an hour to find someplace to eat that was open, it was a nice walk. I learned that I have a really cool hat.
And we got to hear the Accordion of Doom. When Michelle said she was a really bad accordion player, she lied. She is *no* accordion player.
And the trees were beautifully coated with a thick layer of frost, for part of the trip home.
