Day 13: More Minnesota
I finished up my list for Minneapolis/St. Paul this morning by noon so I could hit the road towards NYC. In my mad scramble, here are a few things that caught my eye:
Minnesotans (is that the right word?) are "big" on Powerball. It seemed every time I bought a Diet Coke, there were people ahead of me buying tickets.
***********************************
Downtown Minneapolis had lots of fun and futuristic skywalks and spiral parking lot ramps:
**************************************************
This wheel will be part of something called "Mill Ruin Park" being constructed downtown:
***********************************
Eventually, it's gotta happen. I've been fighting adding this section to my website for a few years now but it's getting harder to resist these contemporary buildings:
***********************************
Now it's time to get some rest. 12 more hours of interstate to get back home tomorrow. What fun!

The "butterfly" is actually a Cecropia moth. Very common in those parts. Aram

Oh! That's even better then - such a pretty moth. I didn't know they sucked on flowers - I thought they only chewed on sweaters. Obviously, I'm pretty ignorant about insects
