Our Robins were in their nest this morning. I saw them testing out their wings yesterday and this morning they were just chilling. This afternoon they are gone. The adult birds are still around but we couldn't find the babies. Sad. It has been fun watching them.
I went on a trip today with our ELL team to the Science Museum of MN. It was fun and the Omnitheater is Amazing!
This is the American-Swedish Institute which is near our house.

Gorgeous weekend after a crappy (rainy) week.
Rode a total of 33 miles on Sunday! I did the first 19 miles solo around the southern half of the Grand Rounds at a decent clip. I stopped to take photographs along the way. I hit Midtown Greenway, Lake Calhoun, Lake Harriet, Minnehaha Parkway (skipping Lake Nokomis), Minnehaha Falls, and the West River Road. The falls and river road were full of people enjoying the day and raising money for the MN AIDS Walk (which raised almost $350,000. In the afternoon Christy and I rode to the Minneapolis Institute of Art, Sebastian Joe’s, Lake of the Isles, Cedar Lake, the Sculpture Garden, Loring Park, and a local co-op for groceries before having a nice bonfire at home!
The rest of the week was busy work stuff and lots of rain. I felt like it rained almost every day! I totaled 51 miles on the bike for the week! Good times. I did go to physical therapy and he gave me a few more exercises. My foot is feeling pretty good for the most part and my knee feels fine with maybe a little tenderness here or there (which reminds me I need to take my drugs).
On Thursday night a friend and I joined other friends watching the TC 1 Mile downtown. This is always a fun event. Check out some of my pictures. The winning elite time was 4:04. The winner of the open wave was 5:58 by a 10 year old!
How was your week?
ONE POST: is a Foto Friday of Gooseberry Falls!
This morning I went for a bike ride along the Grand Rounds and stopped to take pics. This is one of my favorites.
