8/5 Borrowed a Weehoo

image

We borrowed a Weehoo Tag along for when we had the 3 kids. Our plan was to.attach to Christy’s bike and I’d haul the trailer with 2 kids, but her bike is super short and with her rear rack it wouldn’t fit at the proper angle. Riding with the Weehoo is a little different than the trailer. Mostly it is less stable at slower speeds and is more reactive to your bikes leans, etc. A huge factor is the harness that lets younger kids start using it.

8/3 Stadium of Cranes

Our church is right next to the old Metrodome site. We got to see it come down and we get to see the new one come up. It will be interesting to see the phases of construction and its progress over time!

Art on the Run

One of the nice things about Minneapolis is all the art on the street.  Murals, sculptures, flowers, etc.  I recently took a route that took me past quite a bit of art.  In front of the Minneapolis Institute of Art, past some murals, and back past the Minneapolis College of Art and Design‘s Sculpture Garden.

Here are a few pictures, but the interesting part was this quote that I got in my email the next day:

Every run is a work of art, a drawing on each day’s canvas. Some runs are shouts and some runs are whispers. Some runs are eulogies and others celebrations. When you’re angry, a run can be a sharp slap in the face. When happy, a run is your song. And when your running progresses enough to become the chrysalis through which your life is viewed, motivation is almost beside the point. Rather, it’s running that motivates you for everything else the day holds. – Dagny Scott Barrios
