Making hay while the sun shines.

September 10, 2018 By SunDog

By making hay while the sun shines, I mean driving your convertible with the top down while you still can. I saw this car with the owner while on my way to my writers’ group. I thought, “Naomi, just concentrate on your driving.” But I couldn’t stand it because classic car owners just love to […]

July 2, 2018 By SunDog

The First United Methodist Church on Skyline Parkway A.K.A. “The CopperTop,” Has several gardens. I’m guessing about 7, but I might be wrong. I’m sure someone will correct me. Several members of the church take turns wedding and watering the gardens, as well as planning them. A couple of spots have benches as the parking […]

Two trailers full of bicycles sat in the parking lot of the Coppertop parking lot. I’m told it’s a group of Christain bicyclists traveling through Minnesota. On the Rocks Ministries is a Christian non-profit place for kids to hang out. It looks like they have some very fun activities.    I lifted this from their […]

Don’t sweep salt and grit into our streams

April 27, 2018 By SunDog

This photo was actually taken on Friday afternoon. It’s been a close call for the City to know when to have the street sweepers out and when to have the snowplows out. It did snow a bit on Friday. If all the salt and grit runs into our drainage systems it runs into the lake […]

Deer along Skyline

April 27, 2018 By SunDog

As I walked along Skyline Parkway, I heard some noise in the brush. It turned out to be four deer. This photo is the most obvious that there is a deer, the others were very camouflaged.

Explosion at oil refinery

April 27, 2018 By SunDog

As I was on my way to a meeting I noticed a smokestack in Superior with a little black smoke coming out of it, and a little flame in the smokestack. By time my meeting was over the same area was billowing with black smoke. Superior residents said the explosion rocked their houses. Residents were […]
