Stogies On Grand

Went over to Stogies On Grand today to pick up a cigar. This is one of the best cigar shops in the metro area in my opinion.

Governor Mark Dayton

Gov. Mark Dayton signs the marriage equity bill into law on the steps of the Minnesota state capitol.

A Good Day at the Capitol

Today the Minnesota House approved the gay marriage bill in a 75-59 vote! The Senate will vote next week and then it will go to the Governor's desk. 

Frost

At Frost for lunch again with Noel yesterday. I can't stay away from that place. Love the artwork too.

Recently at W.A. Frost with my friend Noel. It was all decked out for Christmas.

St. Catherine University

I spent a lot of time at the College of St. Catherine (now St. Catherine University) way back in the 1980s when I was an undergrad. I actually attended the College of St. Thomas (now the University of St. Thomas), but all my coursework in elementary education was at St. Kate's. This photograph was snapped from the top of the parking ramp at the Highland Park Lifetime Fitness in St. Paul. Just to the right of the center of the picture you can just make out the bell tower of the chapel on the St. Kate's campus. I sang in the St. Thomas/St. Catherine Choral and we'd perform our Christmas concerts in this beautiful chapel.  Photo taken 4-4-12.
