Obama in Saint Paul

President Obama was recently in St. Paul and made a stop at the Grande Ole Creamery on Grand Avenue. The ice cream there, in my opinion, is really heavenly. It was reported that Mr. Obama ordered a single scoop of Black Hills Gold in a waffle cone. I'm sure Michelle would have frowned on a double scoop. I've never tried, let alone heard, of that flavor. I might just have to put it on my list.

Capital

Noel and I went to the History Museum today. This is what the sky looked like just after a downpour and just before another one. This is one of the wettest Junes I've ever experienced. I think we're on track to beat the record set back in the 1890s.
