I realized tonight that with fiber at our cabin the very old Apple TVs I have are limited by their Ethernet ports — can’t exceed 100 Mbps!
Ordered two new Apple TVs to put in next weekend. 🎉
Today I Learned: Culver’s has a thing called a Pup Cup that is a free treat for your dog.
Drinkin' Hat
My cousin Josh performing this original song “Drinkin’ Hat” that his brother Gabe started and they “worked out” together. It even has a callout to our Grandpa and Grandma. Love it. 🎶
League Cup: Necaxa v United
Tonight’s League Cup game with Club Necaxa at Minnesota United FC was a wild time. It started with a hotly contested foul by Necaxa in the box that resulted in a United penalty kick giving them an early 1 - 0 lead. There were players surrounding the VAR scene as the ref was reviwing the call and Necaxa came out very chippy after the call. There was a lot of physicality on both sides and when Necaxa got a breakaway a foul on the Bacharach for the United sent them down a man with a red card 🟥 for the remaining 69 minutes of play!
The man of the match was Dayne St. Clair who had a dozen saves in the second half and somehow with incredible pressure the United kept Necaxa scoreless and took the win.
Truly an incredible night of soccer enjoyed with my friends Jim and Tom! ⚽️
Foo Fighters at Target Field
I’ve been looking forward to seeing the Foo Fighters at Target Field for months now. I got tickets the first day of the pre-sale. This was even a bit more special because Mazie has become a bit of a fan of the Foo’s and wanted to come as well. What a treat it was to sing (scream?) along to “My Hero” with her at the show.

Walking Canoe Bay's Gardens
The gardens at Canoe Bay were a highlight of our stay there. I tried to capture it a bit with this 7 minute video walk around the path.
The gardens at Canoe Bay were filled with incredible flowers.
