Still better than the Crosstown-adjacent station that is near....nothing at all. Doesn't even have a continuous sidewalk to anything.

A nice thing about dropping off your kids off by bike: you can get a beautiful return ride around the Minneapolis chain of lakes. And somedays - like today - you get to watch bald eagles fishing on Lake Harriet. #Minneapolis

Instead of a big stupid arch, we should relocate the weird, disorganized, and incomplete pantheon of presidents from Virginia, allowing them to slowly, publicly decay as a commentary on how presidents deserve no glory.

Somehow a comment about the bike, not the car that killed them.

A lot of bad parking is related to people not wanting the paint scratched on their vehicles. That concern has important implications for traffic calming, like so:

Today is the anniversary of Bloody Friday. The Aquatennial was created by business leaders to get people to forget about the strike. Never forget. #Minneapolis

The guided tour gives you this peak at carvings (like this guide-highlighted handprint) that are invisible to the unaided eye. There are dozens of other carvings in this photo, and thousands of more at the site, spanning an estimated period of 8000 years of human history.

Visited Jeffers Petroglyphs for the first time. There are few places I've traveled that have left a lasting sense of wonder and this one is near the top of that list. Feels like it should be a World Heritage site. #Minnesota

It's a tough little plant, creeping through asphalt and everything. I respect its adaptability but also wish it would die. #hellflower

The best way to take your kids places in this city is in a cargo bike.

It's a horrible invasive plant that's all over Minneapolis, including our parks. The challenge is you can't just pull it. It forms deep and wide root systems that allow it to travel under pavement. Individual flowers are connected by thread-thin roots. You have to dig out the whole system.

Spring is here, so this is going to become a full time Creeping Bellflower hate account. Kill your hellflowers. Tell your friends.

The US has blown through more Tomahawks than in all of Operation Iraqi Freedom, and for what? Global loss of access to the Persian Gulf? Deaths of hundreds of children? www.csis.org/analysis/850...
