POAP 1273919 at SPS Kubb Tournament 2021.
Had my mini studio setup today to present at the MnTech CIO Forum: Straight talk on emerging technologies event. Green screen, mic, key light improve things a lot!
Final stop Up North at the Great! Lakes Candy Company and then on our way home!


Stopped at Cedar Coffee Company in Two Harbors for the first time this morning. Delicious pour over coffee and a great breakfast burrito. We will be back!


Sunrise on Lake Superior. I always find it surprising how fast the sunrise happens. There are just moments from when you see that first glimpse of the corona peering over the horizon until it is fully in view.
Before that sequence the sky was filled with these tremendous reds.
