The Eastern view from the 4th floor of the Wilson Library at the Univ of MN. Another long day with 6th graders doing research.

It was great to have a shiny sun greeting me this morning and this afternoon.  MN has a surprising number of sunny winter days, just not much lately.

Spent most of the day with 6th graders doing research for History Day at the Univ of MN’s Wilson Library.

Today as the 2010 MDRA Annual Party.  Part of the event includes giving out money to elite MN runners through MEADP.  This is Antonio Vega, a Team USA – Minnesota runner who just happened to win last week's USA Half-Marathon Championships.
