The Spring Lake Park Reserve herd was in another area (farther away), but it was so cool to watch them in the binoculars during the big thunderstorm

They kinda look like weeds at first, but then go nuts

Love these guys in a newly landscaped yard just down from the new Centro/Everywhen Burger Bar

Didn’t play well, but pretty plants and good company

Phone says goatsbeard (with musk thistle)

Not sure that I’ve ever seen 261 at the new house

The iris is a pretty cool plant 💜

The watch said it was my longest ride recorded to date: 32.8 miles up and down the Mississippi

Awesome lunch with SK at the place that has been on the list the longest (8 years?!?)

They are getting closer and closer to our house

The lilacs were a little late this year, but just great holiday weekend weather (Colby Lake, Woodbury)

I’d never know on some of these – bike ride photo from along the Mississippi

Pond across from Mystic Lake

Came around the corner and got stopped in my tracks

Beautiful assortment from CK’s Wisconsin visit

Absolutely perfect weather today (*finally*) for walking 18 holes at Ridges at Sand Creek. Shot 87 from the whites and saw lots of turtles and birds also enjoying the nice weather

This Bison Prairie is so close to our house – what a great, close-up visit of the eight adults and four babies

Beautiful (unexpected) one mile path around the oral surgery center off highway 36

Great conditions at Inver Wood Golf Course

* Not pictured: worms

Quick little 5K hike around Afton State Park on a warm Minnesota spring day (78F)

Those big, tall puffy clouds are really something

Dandelions are friends, not weeds 🐝

Now we just need that wind to die down a bit…

I bet waterfall season is awesome this year
