The Layovers were worth it

When I bought my ticket in the fall, I imagined that spring break in the twin cities would be freezing and I'd have to bring my warmest coat. But, I left behind the snow in Utah and went to 70 degree weather in the twin cities. Nick and Lachelle were good hosts and it was fun to meet Lola. I'm sure I have an inaccurate view of what it is really like there since I've been both times in the spring, but they are pretty great cities.

I used to take more pictures. I don't know what my problem is. Hopefully these will give you a little flavor of my vacation.

I'm not sure what is happening this picture with my face, but the sculpture garden in Minneapolis was interesting. Unfortunately, the cherry on the spoon was being cleaned or restored or something but I still managed to entertain myself with some of the other artwork. The worst: a rectangular area surrounded by granite benches with absurd quotes. I'm not sure how that is art.



St. Paul's cathedral is huge and gorgeous. Keyton and I look with mealworms compared to it.



Nick: Hey, Keyton. What sound does a turtle make?
Keyton: Turtle, turtle


Keyton designated himself as Queen Ant and we crawled through tiny tunnels not made for adults. It was fun until some snotty nosed kid at the museum wanted me to play with him in the tunnels. After that, I got out fast. I only play with kids I like in tunnels.


Last photo opportunity with Lola, Keyton, and Nick.

The kid in the tunnel is like the neighbor kid that wanted me to tie his shoe for him. Tie your own shoe dude. Glad you came.
