We returned yesterday evening from what was an absolutely fantastic trip to Minnesota. Except for a few bouts of serious rain (which only lasted a few minutes), the weather was terrific (above).
And on top of that, we got to see lots of old friends. Above, we enjoyed dinner with the Doyle clan and their adorable girls.
And lunch with Nathan brought me back to my days of working in industry. Jamarr even flew in from LA for the event.
And we even managed breakfast with Steph and Garrett (many thanks for the long drive over to see us!).
As most trips to Minnesota make me think of summers there as a kid, we took a walk around Lake Ann with my mom and commented on how much things have changed there…
…and how much Dale has grown since the last time she saw him. Accordingly, she ran over and took a snapshot of him to document his age at that exact moment. And 200 more for the moments in between.
The trip back was largely good, except for a large scale meltdown in the Minneapolis airport security line (wow, that was a big one). Now it’s back to the grind. And back to regular posting (sorry this one is so quick, I’m posting as Dale wiggles all over the place).
