It is SOOOOO nice in the Minneapple today...

[Pierre.Suave]

It is gorgeous outside, and in the spirit of nice weather, I am going outside to grill dinner.

1. 46 out and I have shorts on

[DFW]

2. Here in Sprout City, it was cold, rainy and windy all day. Sucked big time.

[Pierre.Suave]

8. Dallas Texas is the Sprout city?

Why is that?

[DFW]

22. I am not home at the moment. I am in Brussels, Belgium.

Company slang.

[Pierre.Suave]

25. I see

that makes a bit more sense then.

:-)

[DFW]

29. I should have explained from the beginning. My bad.

Anyway, I'm no longer there. I'm now in Düsseldorf, getting
ready to run down to München for the weekend. The weather
still sucks.

3. Minneapolis is always cold!

4. Come back in July and say that

when it's 95 here...

[Pierre.Suave]

5. Not today

it is very warm here in the summers as well.

[Fox Mulder]

6. It made it to 40 degrees F here in Sauk Centre.

I had my sliding glass doors open for a while there.

I guess only we Minnesotans would be crazy enough to do that. :P

[Pierre.Suave]

7. true, we are a hardy bunch...

I was outside grilling in short sleeves today.

it felt very good to be outside in the sun without a jacket.

12. My SIL is from Sauk Centre!

Well, El Rosa really. But her mother and stepfather live in SC and that's where she and my brother were married, reception was at the Hayloft.

9. Isn't it fabulous? I'm in Mankato, and it's just...the berries!

Minnesota spring/summer/fall is our reward for surviving Minnesota winter!

[Pierre.Suave]

10. It certainly is

I agree.

[1gobluedem]

13. Are you a Betsy-Tacy fan?

I have toured all the sites in Mankato...

[grannylib]

14. I've never read them, sorry to say...I moved here for college and

have been here ever since. I was totally unfamiliar with them, not sure why...I was a bookworm from Day 1 and read a lot of the 'standard' stuff - Nancy Drew, Bobbsey Twins, all that kind of thing, but I must have been gone on Betsy-Tacy day *lol*

[1gobluedem]

15. It's never too late to start

Then you can join the B-T Society!

I've gotten more crossword clues from reading those books; it's amazing.

[grannylib]

17. Really? I'm a huge crossword fan; I just may have to make a trip to

the library!

[Lydia Leftcoast]

18. I read all the books when I was a kid

even the one where Betsy goes to Europe on the eve of World War I.

[1gobluedem]

20. That's one of the best ones

But they're all good.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

11. I drove home this evening with my car window rolled down.

40+ degrees! It was awesome!

[Pierre.Suave]

16. I went out for a drive today

and did the same thing, windows down.

it is nice, very nice.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

19. I walked from Linden Hills to 50th and France

because I had to deposit a check, and then I had lunch at the Edina Grill, just so I could order a side of their sweet potato French fries with a spicy dipping sauce. Then I walked back a different way! :bounce:

We Minnesotan go crazy the first day we can go around without our parkas on.

[Pierre.Suave]

23. Wow, that is quite a walk.

Good job!

[Lydia Leftcoast]

26. About 40 minutes each way

but pleasant. :7

[Pierre.Suave]

30. I am sure it was

Today was even nicer wasnt it!

:-)

[Twillig]

21. What's the status of teh bridge?

I used to live right close by in a rooming house on University and walked across the 10th ave. bridge to the West Bank so many times..

Wassup?

[Pierre.Suave]

24. It is...

Under construction, I think I heard the opening day for traffic would be this coming Xmas Eve.

[RebelOne]

27. Here in the Atlanta area, it is sunny and warm with highs in the mid-70s.

[azmouse]
