Enchanting Snowfall On the Midtown Greenway



People bike on the Greenway all year, like they do on the city streets.  It must have been quite a magical ride on this day.

Happy New Year, Blog!


Decorated for Lunar New Year (Tết in Vietnamese), the window of a Vietnamese grocery on Nicollet Ave. reflects a shopper making her way through snowy slop.

This blog started on Asian New Year in February, 2011, so this is its second birthday! On we go, into our third year...

Land Of 10,001 Lakes

Well, maybe not a real lake, just an ephemeral one, providing a nice reflection of the boulevard tree.  Watch out when that re-freezes!

What a mess!


We usually publish only one photo per day, but I couldn't resist all these people dealing with the snow-slush on Nicollet Ave. S., employing a roof rake, a snow blower, and a shovel.

Footprints in Snow

I hear we might get more snow this weekend.  That's typical for the end of February.

First Snow!

A few random flakes fell earlier this November, but this is the first white ground. I've lent my camera to Marz, who is her visiting family in Oregon, so I ran outside with my laptop, here at Bob's Java Hut, to record it.
I didn't realize the computer would catch me too, out of the corner of its eye.

The Blooming

This photo was taken at the empty lot (except that it's full of snow) at Nicollet Av. and 27th Street.

Your Thoughts Take Shape Through Snow


This morning, the window of Bob's Java Hut puts me in mind of the opening lines of Louis MacNeice's poem "Snow":

The room was suddenly rich and the great bay
      -window was
Spawning snow and pink roses against it
Soundlessly collateral and incompatible:
World is suddener than we fancy it.
