I felt comforted by my confidence that I was not about to get a faceful of sand, nor of whatever other airborne irritants might be hiding underneath of there. These pallets and tarpaulins, they helped along my enjoyment of my morning.

According to my New Age, I am rare in that I have got 2 Spirit Animals:
• Seahorse during equinox-to-solstice periods (Mar-Jun & Sep-Dec),
• and Jellyfish during solstice-to-equinox periods (Jun-Sep & Dec-Mar).
So I can definitely relate to feelings of yearning that I could be spending my time someplace other than in-&-around old grey-painted bldgs in S Mpls!

You are in luck if you need to run errands to each of these businesses, because they're all right here handy and adjacent; and also because you're probably not hurting for money if you're patronizing these businesses, are you.

So now we've come to the end of the downspout! I think maybe I know why the plant looks a little bit forlorn and unhealthy: I think maybe somebody's been shaking it really hard for a long time. As in, to see the fronds bobbing and vibrating.
I hope that the intoxicated shall never, ahem, pee on it in the night. It's a vulnerable plant!

I worry that it's gonna get stuck looking like that. It might be a good time to tear everything down and start over! The kindest thing I can think of to say about downtown Minneapolis is that the buildings are funny-looking.

People like to get excited about crazey-lookin old surfaces and I wish I had a car for every parkingspot in the lot. Soon that entire bldg shall get overtaken by living plantlife & people won't be able to greatly admire the agedness of the bldg's exterior.
Also, if this were a WCCO Channel 4 Minneapolis TV local newscast, I wouldn't be talking about "people." I'd be talking about folks.

I reckon the golden wall got something pressed firmly into it @ some point in the past. I'd've hated to've heard the sound it made. The 5 different colours of little colourful flags caused me to buy the black car.

I kind of like it! Congratulations to the child for getting its artwork showed. The thing gets honoured in a window spot where the bus-stop people can look @ it.
