Bridge Which Must Not Be Named (2x), Sabo (2x), Intercity (1x), Lake St. (1x)
Greenway to the Mississippi trails. More irrational wandering. Set out in shorts and a t-shirt with temps in the mid-50s. Thought I would go much shorter, but every time I thought about turning around and heading back for home I saw a bridge or had a thought that persuaded me otherwise. Ended up on the St. Paul side of the Mississippi finishing the trail exploration I started a couple weeks ago on Thanksgiving morning. I'd say they're much narrower . . . even a little risky in places . . . but of the two riverbanks it certainly has the better views. Plus, it has the afternoon sun this time of year. Certainly a consideration. Also, brought a new camera along. Think these turned out okay:

Let it snow . . .

| 16 inches? |
