Finished leaves last night, ran out of bags and daylight at the same time and called it good enough.

Next up, put out the fencing for the rabbit Maginot Line and put the smaller snowblower back together.

Yesterday I went out and mowed over the leaves that had fallen in the last two weeks. Only two bags. Tonight I really should cut back this one bush in the front yard that you should cut back every year. Might not get another chance to do it.

Six highly disturbed cats right now. We moved all of the furniture out of the living room & entry because the carpet is getting ripped up next Monday, and new flooring will be laid. So that pretty much rocked their world since cats do not handle change well. Then we got out the suitcases. Now we're being tripped up, and listening to random pitiful mewing.

Minnesota RT-ers, I'm gonna be in the Maryland Heights area and I need to kill some time Friday while my sisters are committing murder (i.e. Black Friday shopping). We have dinner set up for the night and are hitting up Lakes and Legends Friday after that, but I'm in need of a good time-killer for the day.

Recommendations? I'll have my wife and 12 year old daughter in tow and probably some of my brothers and in-laws. Are there any cool events going on that are a must-hit? If not, I debated either doing some kind of escape room or axe-throwing place, but I'm also entertaining a chill place to watch some football and talk. I'm staying far away from Mall of America.

The Como Conservatory is pretty cool for a stroll through some greenery. Especially cool when it is frigid and white outside.

If it isn't your bag you might be able to divide and conquer with some of the ladies going there while you do something more testosterone driven.

The fall flower show doesn't close until Sunday evening.

Not exactly sure.

I’d do the throwing axes at in laws personally.

Attended Simpson niece's senior recital at Simpson tonight. It was really amazing. She double majored in music performance and accounting. My goodness I have no idea how she can memorize that much music and play it so flawlessly.

If plans change, you should go to the high school football championship game Friday Night. I believe Velo and I will both be there. Go Rebels!

Flannel Jax Axe Throwing in St Paul is in the same building as a bar (Can Can Wonderland) with a bunch of old school video games and indoor mini golf. There's also a brewery in the building.

If you decide to be more intellectual, the Science Museum in St Paul is pretty cool.

If you are going to Lakes and Legends on Friday, the Hollidazzle celebration is in nearby Loring Park. There's an ice skating rink, a bunch of food stands, a small Christmas market, and some other stuff going on there. It may be better to see at night when it's lit up.

Push this bad boy storm north. Keep going keep going. Home in the 3-6 band, farm in the 6-8 now. I can stomach 4 or so up there, 6-8 a bit much.

Good news is i have a free blade for my pickup, going over to get it today. Somebody left this at a site so I figure I might as well use it.

I went down and picked up the daughter last night. It's nice to have her home. Her boyfriend came over last night and we discussed who would be the celebrity ESPN picker this weekend. My guess was Lindsey Vaughn but Lizzo would get the students pretty excited.
