Leaves on the Trees in Minneapolis

September 21-24

I traveled to Minneapolis to teach a class. This is the first time in many years that I have been to Minneapolis when there were leaves on the trees. Generally, Minneapolis is a January or February excursion with tempertures hovering just below 0. I generally see the pond in the office complex as a sheet of ice. It was very nice except for the torrential downpour just as I tried to leave the office on Tuesday. Yes the hotel is right across the street, so I walked to work that morning - can you say "drowning in a vertical position."
