20° in mid-November? Go outside!

The wind is a bit nippy high on the Mississippi River bluff in Lilydale Regional Park, but the view is worth it.

The Minneapolis skyline

65° in mid-November? Go outside!

Tired of sidewalks? A field trip to the Dodge Nature Center is just the ticket. These were on the Marie Property (PDF) south of Marie.

Too bad the camera wasn't handy to capture the two bucks fighting over a skittish doe.

Speaking of our grandkids, here is some relevant Dr. Seuss:

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You're on your own.
And you know what you know.
And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go....
Oh, the Places You'll Go

Step with care and great tact
And remember that Life's a Great Balancing Act
Just never forget to be dexterous and deft
And never mix up your right foot with your left.
Oh, the Places You'll Go

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
nothing is going to get better. It's not.
The Lorax

Yum!
