We just returned from stuffing ourselves at the Grandma's Marathon volunteer pizza party.
Next weekend we plan to attend the Prairie Home Companion 40th anniversary party in Saint Paul.

Our First Hike

Finally, improving  weather permitted a nice walk this morning on the new extension of the Lakewalk from Lester Park to Brighton Beach.

We enjoyed some really good music at the faculty recital last night and last Monday by the Twin Ports Wind Orchestra.

Chowing Down and Games

Here for a brief visit were UMD Summer Resident alums, Larry and Leslie Chlebeck to refresh their not-too-distant memories and share Oakland B's potluck. Leslie won the card game (not shown).

Grandma's Marathon


We've been having a spate of cold foggy weather.
I feel we're overdue for the beautiful weather we all expect.
The weather, however, was just what the runners needed to to break records in yesterday's Grandma's Marathon.

One of our biggest events is Grandma's Marathon. We have volunteered for it each of the past eleven years.

drive was blessedly uneventful.
