Not Him Who Would Know, Where In London To Find You

I got a new job. Nothing exciting. I'm working for a car rental company at the airport checking for any damages on cars that come in. Maybe it'll make working at Menards more exciting. Things are finally getting easier there, I finally understand how electricity works. I can even install a ceiling fan without looking at the instructions.

I'm trying to talk my advisor into allowing me to take a photography class, even though we're not allowed to take classes that aren't in our program. Speaking of...I found out how much I'll actually be making when I get out of school. Let's just say its the same as a Nurse and more than a chef. So I'm pretty hopeful for the future, if I get a job I want that is.

We finally started to sort through all the junk that came with the house in the basement. Hundreds of random videos and cassette tapes. As well as dead mice and some dudes underwear.

Anything nice? I can't wait to come to your new place sometime. Yeah, anyway... My life is going fine. Dad and I found you a new job, and the best part is you dont have to change stores: Be a lift driver for the lumber yard, it looks fun, just drive around carrying wood, looks fun!

Minneapolis Old House Bike Rides Without the Kids

Brooke and I went on a little bike date again to see some more old houses. This time for one of the tours I was most excited for, Lowry Hill. We started with a history of the Walker Art Museum. This house was built for the architect Frank B. Long of the notable architects Long and Kees. That's quite the roof. Long wouldn't recognize the view from his home. These houses are bit fancy for my taste, but I learned some Minneapolis history along the way. It seemed like on this tour we had to stop at every house on Mount Curve Avenue. I always wonder what people do with McMansions, but why the heck would you want an actual mansion. Hopefully preserving the history. Doubt it. Still looks the same. Dreamy garden. See Brooke, we need more trees. Brooke's book even pointed out a few mid-century homes to my surprise. We kept on walking right up until sunset. Which meant a night bike ride. My favorite. The next day we took the new Hennepin Avenue protected bikewa...

Work Trip: Dallas Part Deux

I was back in Dallas for a day or so to shoot another college campus. After the shoot I made my way back to Bishop Arts District for some tacos at Taqueria El Si Hay . Of course Scott get sent to the cities you don't want to visit in summer. Hey, I just go where they send me. I should've got some elotes on the side. It was only 98 and humid. Just your typical Dallas summer day. I ended up finding a shady park to eat. There’s a lot, and I mean a ton, of suburban sprawl in Dallas proper. But if you look hard enough there’s some rather large areas of pre-WWII development.

Our First Visit to the Steele County Fair and a Twins Game

This past year Theo's best friend moved to Owatonna. When we came down last May for his birthday party I saw a sign for the Steele County Fair and knew we had to come back for it. First stop is the lemonade stand. Then we hit up the daredevil show. After going to the RV show last February, Theo gets excited to tour campers. They're fun to look at it or rent, but sorry bud, we're sticking to tents for the most part. You know I love a fair that is connected to the historic village. I don't know if this is a common thing, but a few of the county fairs around here have little history centers right on their fairgrounds.
