Winter is tardy to Minnesota. It’s December, 50 degrees and people are running around in flip flops. What is going on?
I finally fell into a sustainable workout routine, started spending more time at home, and I have a boyfriend again.
I met Abo at Lush. He’s from Minnesota and, like so many of the other Minneapolis gays, he’s a Target boy.
We spend a lot of time walking the dogs around Lake Calhoun.
The dogs are a little salty with me right now because I dragged them on this epic, 12 mile walk today around Cedar Lake, Lake of the Isles, Calhoun, Linden Hills and Lake Harriet. Anyone from Minneapolis knows what a ridiculous trek that is. It’s unseasonably warm, so the four hour walk was gorgeous though.
Dates, friends, drag shows, quality time with the dogs, work, snow and unseasonably warm weather.
I’m cramming some Lake Calhoun time in before it starts freezing. Dog-hair-in-car be dammed.
Even after a long day at work with a 32-mile bike commute, I still make time to sneak to Lake Calhoun.
I walked the dogs in Loring Park almost every day last week, when it wasn’t raining that is…
The mud finally dried, so it was time to hit Lake Calhoun with the dogs.
It was overcast, but a perfect 65 degrees and gorgeous.
What a bizarre two weeks.
I had my normal schedule of work, class, lake trips, Jeset Bar dance-offs, and adventures around the metro:
It’s hard to believe now, but there was a time when that massive snow field was water.
The newscasters say that this is the coldest week of the year. It’ll reach -20 soon, but we are still jumping around Lake Calhoun.
