Gas Line, Northrop neighborhood, Minneapolis, MN.

Thursday, July 28, 2011

On my walk with Jen and Brynn around Northrop neighborhood, I spotted this gas line. It looked like a sculpture to me and with a little Lightroom effect thrown in, it kind of is sculptural.

Day 200: Parade

Waiting for the Torchlight Parade, Minneapolis, MN.
Wednesday, July 20, 2011  

While waiting for the bus on Hennepin Ave, I saw people waiting for the Torchlight Parade, part of the Aquatennial celebration. It was about 6:30 PM when I arrived and these early arrivers had a two-hour wait ahead of them as the parade was scheduled to start at 8:30 PM. The fact that the Torchlight 5K was canceled/postponed was a sign to me that I should head on home.  I thought these little lawn chairs (love seats?) were cute, don't you?  

By the way, I mad the 200 day mark! Woohoo!  165 days left in 2011- make them count!

My family and I visited my aunt and uncle at Skyscape Condo and they have great views. One of which is the deflated Metrodome.

Thanks to Allison Long, graphic designer extraordinaire, I have the business cards of my dreams for my Minneapolis 81 project. Yes, I dream about business cards. The card features Tartan Cabaret font from Chank Fonts and was printed by Moo.

Massive migraine hit me at 4:00 PM and so Scott brought me a Sprite to help ease my upset stomach. I was able to sleep it off but I definitely didn't feel motivated to take a photo of anything other than the Sprite bottle sitting on my nightstand.

Bouncy ball in a field of grass and weeds. Minneapolis, MN.

Friday, May 27, 2011

This children's ball has been touring the neighborhood and has found a resting place in an abandoned yard.  For some reason the whole thing depresses me.

Day 143: Minneapple Tea at 2nd Moon

Before going to Give & Take at the Playwrights' Center in Seward, I stopped by 2nd Moon Coffee Cafe at 2223 E Franklin Ave in Minneapolis. The containers of tea immediately caught my eye with the handwritten labels in shades of pink and purple against the blue walls. I am not much of a tea drinker but I associate it with peace, calm, quiet and generally being in a zen state. So, I should probably drink it!

My new personal business cards from Moo.

Monday, April 4, 2011

Happy mail day today! My first pack of personal business cards from Moo arrived. There have been many times when I've wished I had a way to quickly tell people where to find me online. Now, all I need to do is carry these cards with me in my camera bag/purse. I am so happy one of the blogs I read mentioned Moo. They are a really cool printing company and they have affordable options for personal business cards. I hope to use my own photos for the next pack of cards!
