Blackthorn, all I can say is I'm absolutely green with travel envy! Beautiful photos of what appears to be an amazing city. About twelve years ago I skipped Venice to see a whirlwind version of Rome, Milan, Napoli, and Capri. Twelve years ago... jeez I'm getting old. Nice lids too, of course!

jbucklin: Glad you enjoyed the photos, and that they brought back some pleasant memories for you. The street in downtown Minneapolis to which you refer is Nicollet Avenue, better known as Nicollet Mall. Vibrant and energetic, with Saks, Neiman-Marcus, and Macy's anchoring a host of very nice specialty shops, clubs, and restaurants, all accessible via the skyway system.

It is true that many would find the Minnesota Winter harsh and inhospitable, but this is an overstatement, I believe. Minnesota is a terrific place to live, and I certainly would not let our much maligned Winter weather deter you!


Alan: Many thanks for your kind words. You HAVE seen my St. Regis, I believe, but it was waaaay back in October!


EggHead: Thank you. I agree, nothing compares with spending these special and quiet moments at home, with family.


Jeff: Thanks! I really appreciate your kind comments.

Nicollet Mall---oh yes; I must have walked up and down that street at least a hundred times, visiting shops, dept. stores, cafes, etc. Incredible atmosphere and energy on Nicollet Ave. I miss it. But....I have some pretty deep roots here in Dallas, so no relocating for awhile.

Lefty, Congratulations! The pup is far too adorable, and the two of you look like very happy parents. The more I see that nutria quality Stetson (yours and Alan's come to mind), the more I'd like to put one on the radar. Very nice.

Please excuse my ignorance, but what was the long wait for the puppy about?

Lefty - Amazing shots as always.
David - I am quite envious of that hat.
I wore my brown Whippet today. It's very cold for us in Florida today.
