Lots of changes underway at the Minnesota Zoo – construction equipment all over

Ran two wet and bloody laps around Harriet and Calhoun (~13.4 miles). Saw one bald eagle, one Schutz and a multitude of hipsters

Kids have basically controlled the iPad since I bought it, so it’s nice to snatch it to catch up on Private Practice – great video quality

Think I’m done using Time Machine for laptop backups – was working fine until I upgraded to the new 1TB drive. Going back to SuperDuper!

Ran that last route at a 7:59 pace – haven’t done that since Get in Gear in April. Seems harder and harder to lower that number now

Rode the short trail with kid one and two twice; now heading out on a hilly 7.4 mile run through Eagan and Apple Valley

Duluth paper: St. Louis County (MN) is larger than the state of Delaware (4,135 square miles). No wonder it takes so long to drive anywhere

Heading to the Eagan auction house to check on some TVs and monitors, then haircuts and Zantigo

What’s up with cousin Eddie?

Errand day: credit union, TJ Maxx, Best Buy and Leeann Chin. Mountain bike long trail this afternoon

Time to play city mouse again

Stopping in Virginia to scratch the Mickey D’s fry itch and fill up the MINI

Had breakfast for lunch at the Tower Cafe – eggs, pancakes and hashbrowns

Glad I ran the Echo Point 6 miler tonight – the new shell took care of the cold wind and Vermilion is just beautiful no matter the weather

Minnesota total lottery sales rose 3.7% last year to $499 million. Top state? New York at $7.8 billion, followed by MA at $4.4 billion

Scattered thunder/snow showers tonight after 7PM, with winds gusting to 20. Sounds like a great evening for a run, right?

Forgot that Eminem sampled Heart on a song. Wonder if they can get him up here in December for a cameo in the heated tent

Perfect – a little live stream to go with lunch today

Gina and Mr. Welle must be working hard: USB profit up 51% – http://www.startribune.com/business/105337528.html

Thanks to our wonderful accounting manager, the IT audit report has been completed and sent to McGladrey. On to PCI compliance…

I wish I was half as good a swimmer as either of my kids – 12 laps in the smallish Fortune Bay pool and I’m completely exhausted

Finally updated the résumé page (https://7minutemiles.com/resume) and PDF (https://www.7minutemiles.com/media/KingsburyResume.pdf)

Pizza + hockey = no run tonight (but maybe a late night swim in the pool)

Woohoo – Wild hockey on in my room. How did people live before satellite TV?

Wow, that was a lot of meetings today. Dinner tonight with Troy Swanson at the Vermilion Club (pizza!), then Wild-Canucks on FSN North
