My mother is coming to see me soon and when we were in the early planning stages of this trip, she kept saying she wanted to see the fall foliage. Here’s a picture I took downtown today…
We’re not quite there yet. Is is possible for the leaves to change dramatically by Thursday?
Mostly I just love playing with my new camera.
Overheard In Minneapolis is a great site for submitting conversations that you’ve overheard anywhere around the Cities. I just submitted my first entry. Something about a Hobbit in a suit. Keep an eye out. 
Also if you have time, just take a look at the Google search for “overheard” and you’ll find tons of other cities doing the same thing.
I don’t think I’ve laughed so much in a long time.
Bought a Kodak C613 digital camera today. It’s pretty.
I had a Sony camera but it finally went kaput on me last night. Plus my mother is coming to visit me this weekend and I need to make sure I can capture our memories! 
Speaking of this weekend, we’ll be spending it in exciting Stillwater, Minn. I’ve never been but have heard many great things about it, and it sounds like something my mother would love.
Especially with the fall foliage coming around.
