cows, colleges, and contentment
This is the official motto of the city of Northfield. I have not seen any cows yet, have seen
both colleges (St. Olaf and Carleton) and the jury's still out on contentment. It's been significantly
warmer, making the environment while not exactly delightful, at least less hostile!

just one of the "gang"
Dared to venture out into the frozen "tundra" here, now sitting in a cozy, sunny spot,
drinking my "James Gang" coffee. Paying homage to the Jesse James' history here in good ol'
Northfield: in a bank robbery attempt by the James Gang in 1876, local citizens went after the
robbers and several members (although not JJ himself) were caught and the bank robbery was stopped. In fact this event is such a notable piece of history the town has a whole "defeat of Jesse
James Days" festival every September!

pizza stanch
Today: local Pizza place delivery car stopping by
Sunshine: finally!!!! Seriously, this seems to be the first day it has not been cloudy and
overcast in nearly a week? Longer, perhaps.
Yesterday while driving, saw a Ford 4x4, with a bumper sticker that said something like this:
Warning: in case of the Rapture, this car will become unmanned.
Okay, then...
