Spring has sprung!

It was a beautiful 72-degree sunny day in the Twin Cities today. With the boys at their dad's and Erin at work, Sarah and Daddy decided to get out of the house and do something fun. First we visited the open house at Thunderbird Aviation, where daddy used to teach, and he ran into a few old friends there and we shared a couple of free hamburgers and watched airplanes. Then we drove to Minneapolis and daddy pulled his bike and Sarah's trailer out of the minivan, and we rode 18.5 miles on the new Midtown Greenway and around Lakes Calhoun and Harriet. It was really windy, so we went really slow going east and really FAST heading west. Sarah took her usual 30-minute catnap in her trailer. Daddy was surprised to see that the Lake Harriet Pavilion got a new paint job. It used to be blue, right Aunt Ellaina?


Paris Hilton wannabe (please God, no!) visits Lake Harriet. Daddy wanted to buy Sarah an ice cream there, but he left his money back in the van, so we settled for water, bananas and a chocolate-chip granola bar that we already had with us.


With all the wind, it was a great day for sailing!


What are you doing, Sarah? Pilates?


This flower is for all of you, my internet fans. But the granola bar is MINE!
