Timberwolves v Kings
Fun to be courtside watching the Timberwolves warmup. 🏀
Basketball teams always have impressive pregame experiences. 🏀 🔈
Timberwolves v Kings jump ball! 🏀
With all the amazing computational photography power of an iPhone XS, why can’t it properly expose a picture with a lot of snow? This seems like it should be solvable.
Tonight was the first time since having a 3D printer that I realized something I was thinking of buying I could instead print. 😏
Snowy drive in this morning. There are 5 lanes somewhere there. ❄️
Wild hockey game tonight!
We saw A Dog’s Way Home today. It was exactly what you would expect it to be. Good movie, particularly for the dog lovers amongst us.
We played “Quest for the Amulet at Windmere Castle" at Escape MSP Lakeville today. It was a cool room, and we were nowhere even close to solving it when the clock rain out. 😬 Room 26!
Tyler and I played in our first Pokémon friendly tournament today. I’m glad he knows what he’s doing!
Had a majestic bald eagle visit us this morning. Just 50 or so feet away. Surveying the frozen lake, I suspect looking for small animals seeking some open water. There is a natural spring not far from this spot that flows year round.
Tetris 99 on the Switch is amazing! 🤩 So far my highest ranking is #4. I’ve never gotten into Battle Royale games, but I love Tetris, and this is crazy fun. 🎮
A giant snow pile is a pretty good thing to play soccer with. ❄️⚽️
Little snow isn’t going to keep me from grilling! Big Green Egg time! ❄️🔥
Bit of snow out there.
Big space, and a great respite from the cold and snowy winter.
Watched FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened tonight. I didn’t follow this story when it happened. Unbelievable mess, fraud. 🎬
Started reading Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport tonight. 📚
Checking out the Life Time Sport at Winter Park. Super cool pick-up soccer for the kids! ⚽️
I had a great night celebrating at the #TeamSPS Sales Awards Dinner! Awesome to see a team support and recognize each other so enthusiastically! 🙌
