Port City

I brought my camera with me to work on Friday in the hopes of stopping by Bayfront Park at some point to see the hot air balloons at the Balloon Festival. Due to weather conditions and a crazy work day, I never had the chance to see the balloons or even make it away from my desk. I did stop by Canal Park on my way into work to take pictures of a ship sitting out in Lake Superior. There was wonderful morning sunlight on the ship as I was making my way to Canal Park, but by the time I got there, the gray skies took over.

As I was leaving my office much later that day, the dark clouds of the morning were overtaken by bright sunlight. This ship was just going out of the harbor as I was headed home for the day.

The beautiful sunshine stayed for most of the weekend as we ushered in fall. I can’t wait to get out and capture some of the autumn colors in the coming weeks.

A Walk In The Park

After a long work week, we kicked off last weekend by heading down to the lake. We visited the Rose Garden and Lakewalk. Sophia brought her roller blades and Sebastian brought his longboard.

Taking A Picture Of Another Picture Taker

Movies in the Park was just getting started when we were leaving. Someday we will have to stay and watch a movie in the park. Instead we made our way back to our car having already enjoyed the wonderful evening. It was a beautiful night for a walk in the park.

Sophia x2

A high school friend of my mine was in town recently. Her Dad was having surgery and she came to be here with him. She and her children were spending a number of days in Minnesota to visit family and friends. She was a bridesmaid in my wedding, but moved away after college. We hadn’t kept in touch much until after her daughter was born. After reconnecting, I found out that she also has a daughter named Sophia that was born the same year as my Sophia. Exactly three months to the day before my Sophia.

The girls had only met once when they were very small. In fact, neither Sophia nor Sebastian remembered meeting before. We got together on a beautiful evening at Playfront Park. The kids played on the playground and ran around. Then Mike and Sebastian started up a touch football game. All of the kids teamed up and had a great time. They even took in a random kid or two that happened to be in the park. After they finished the game, we walked over to Bayfront Festival Park and along the lakewalk so that her kids could see the largest freshwater lake in the world.
