Taste of Minnesota is back in Minneapolis this summer, and Joan Jett and the Blackhearts are headlining. Definitely going to see them.
Last time I was at Taste of Minnesota, a long time ago, I saw Blondie perform during a thunderstorm, and Debbie Harry brought Chubby Checker onstage. It was wild.
The sound of the... freezing slush? hitting our chimney right now sounds so weird. Like pebbles and sand getting thrown at an empty tin can.
And light-flickering thunder.

A favorite weird movie that was made in #Minnesota - and even produced by Ethan Coen! - was 1999's "The Naked Man," starring Michael Rapaport as a chiropractor by day, pro wrestler by night. His wrestling persona was "Naked Man" where he wore a body suit with internal human organs printed on it.
A former roommate of mine - and women's hockey player - was in a crowd scene during one of the wrestling matches. #MNastodon

@NNN @Heyweldon @ascentale @xtaran @bikenite Hutchinson is a good day trip from the cities. They have a city campground right on the river that’s about 1 mile by bike from all the downtown stuff. We did it a couple years ago from Eden Prairie. #MNastodon @bikenite #bikenite
Bicycled to Houston, Minnesota and back to Rushford on a beautiful 27.77 C day with a cool breeze.
Stopped by Owl City Cycles

who are now "Open for the season".
Fixed my front gearing. Part on the post had slipped down enough to cause random shifting problems. They also switched out a really gunky rear shifter cable. Made it wonderful coming home. Good work, definitely going back.

Yesterday I saw my first green grass of the season here.
Rushford Episcopal church. Made by Lewis Pinkney, a former slave and master stone mason who built several similar buildings here in Rushford, Minnesota to help out the George and Harriett Stevens family, abolitionists who have a street here named after them.
My country is going to shit but it’s finally grill season so today feels like things are a little less shit. #minnesota #mnastodon #grilling #cooking

I'm guessing *someone* knows if these branches are intertwined like this for a reason or if someone was bored or just playing around.
Finally felt a bit better and bicycled 20.5 Kilometers to Peterson and back. Still had to stop to blow my nose a lot. But worth it on a sunshine day that wasn't too cold.
OMG! THEY HAVE BUTTERSCOTCH! It is SOOO good! #latte #coffee
I have been looking for a local coffee shop that stocks this flavor of syrup for so long. On a whim, I stopped by Sunshine Coffee Co. in Lake Elmo, where apparently they roast their own beans! What a fun find! #MNastodon
