Last week, I finally made it to Subtext Books in downtown St Paul for the first time. Absolutely one of the best bookstores I’ve ever been to.

(Original series here, with subsequent discoveries here.)

I’m going to the Ren Fest today for the first time in over thirty-five years, and possibly only the second or third time ever. This weekend’s theme is, apparently, Oktoberfest and I am told there will be yodelers. I think I’ve just developed an anticipatory hangover.

I grew up in the ’70s, so I’m having a very hard adjusting to the fact that bald eagle sightings are now a daily occurrence for me.

A snowy morning, and a snowy day ahead.

Crescent moon through bare branches out my kitchen window this morning, unphotographable.

A Day in the Life.

Waking up to the first snow of the season.
