Groovy ceiling at this hotel.

I spent 3 1/2 days mired in the East Coast Stormaggedon. Watching the ground crew shovel a path by hand to the plane should have been my first clue to turn back and head home. Although several flights canceled, I eventually made it out to Harrisburg.

A little one, but a jet nonetheless.
I love these 2-gate airports.

We pass 4 Cabela’s on our drive to Minnesota and usually stop in Owatonna for deep fried cheese curds. I’d wager there is someone who had this Jerky pistol on their wishlist. Can’t imagine who.
This was taken with my Googlephone. (Also called the MyTouch, which is kind of a creepy name.)

This guy was hanging out in a fountain at a hidden gem of a school inĀ California (nicknamed the Secret Garden).

Beautiful day for a visit to the John & Mary Pappajohn Sculpture Park.
