Urging my fellow Minnesotans to do one simple thing. Step outside. Take a photo of your block. Post it on your social media with this tag: #where’stheinsurrection?

Despite skies that ranged from blue to threatening, Open Streets Uptown was a great place to meet voters, part of 8–/2 hours of campaigning today—so far!

I’ll wager that I’m the only candidate out hustling votes tonight in Mpls with two broken ribs, courtesy of yesterday’s hit-and-run encounter between my bike and an SUV. At the League of Women Voters mayoral forum at the downtown library.

Big trees falling in journo ranks. Public media’s Nancy Cassutt and Strib’s Mike Kaszuba last week, and PiPress’s Bill Salisbury last night.

According to one of them, neither the mayor of Mpls nor any CMs were on the target list.

Hard to realize that both of the chamber leaders who fostered the landmark 2023 session—Melissa Hortman and Kari Dziedzic—are no longer with us.

Soren Stevenson wins first-ballot endorsement in Mpls Ward 8, increasing chances of DSA increasing its margin on Council. Josh Bassais likely to continue his campaign.

Lynda and I walked the fabulous Wood Lake Nature Center today before tree-felling and construction start on a new building. The geese are back but not the red-winged blackbirds—my personal indicator of when spring is here.

I wish that everyone who is exclaiming about 3-14 being Pi(e) Day would tune into how easy it is to make a pie from scratch, especially since the addition of the food processor to the making of a pie crust. It’s as easy as, well, pie. Then every day would be Pie Day!

It’s only March but I managed to incur my first case of road rash of this year’s biking season yesterday.

Enough with the cheesy mayonnaise hype detracting from the Duke’s Mayo Bowl already.
