The sun setting on a frozen marsh in central Wisconsin.

The Mississippi River at La Crosse Wisconsin as seen from the train.

Took the train from Saint Paul to Columbus WI and then an Uber into Madison. Traveling across Wisconsin is kinda dull. There’s some pretty spots but not much in the way of dramatic vistas going on. The train still beats driving on I-94.

My hometown would probably ban kids from walking or biking to school if they could. I live 1200 miles away from there now.

Ice climbing!

Haven’t talked to anyone from high school since high school.

Ton Homan is a bitch for sure.

In Saint Paul for the day, so of course I’m starting with second breakfast at The Lost Fox.

My first time encountering Rep. Summer Lee and I am very impressed. More like this, please.

I bought a copy of a Mark 1 while scrolling the internet at 2AM. Now I’m not allowed to purchase things off the internet after 9PM. Luckily, I was able to return it.

Sounds like the world’s richest guy needs to hire better security.

This photo is just amazing. Perfect summation of what’s going on in Minneapolis.

All the squirrels in my neighborhood are straight up thugs.

Good job today. Keep it up m.

Out getting some vitamin D. The Chippewa’s more frozen than I’ve seen it in a couple of years.

Good work with Pam Bondi. Keep it up.

Thank you

Dinosaurs and doing drugs in the desert are cool.

Depending on how things go it’s either this or Dead Set On Destruction by Husker Du. Then throw on some Prince and Lake Street Dive. It’s gonna be Minneapolis all the way down.

Since they were parked illegally, why didn’t you have them towed?

In other news not related to the current mess, sometimes I take pictures and I just picked up a Snap Camp camera. Looking forward to taking it for a stroll.

Hey, there I am

Exactly this.

Just had a Super Bowl halftime where the singer:
1) boasts about the poor place he’s from;
2) boosts the value of agriculture;
3) celebrates small town life;
4) highlights the joy of inter-generational celebrations; and
5) promotes marriage.

And tomorrow, the MAGA movement will attack it.

I dig them. I had a fairly wide riser bar on there before, so the narrower bar will take a little getting used to. But it’s Velo Orange Granola Bars FTW.

With all the crap going on, I’ve sorta forgotten about posting about bikes.
This is a test fit of Velo Orange Granola Bars on OG Surly Straggler. I’ll spend a few minutes spinning on my trainer to see if I dig it or not.

Someone needs to rewatch West Side Story

Excellent reminder from CNN's Brian Stelter. Basic human decency.

"Take a stand in defense of decency." "This is not normal behavior. This is not healthy behavior." @brianstelter.bsky.social

Please be nice to cookie moms this year, I'm trying to retain normalcy and raise money for the troop while doing everything else. The girls want to use their profits for kids that are sheltering at home.
