Remember headphone cables? Those were bothersome.

Enjoyed Darkest Hour. 🎬

🌨 It is still snowing in Minneapolis. 🤦‍♂️ I am flying to Ukraine 🇺🇦 tomorrow and will be enjoying the actual Spring weather!

Snow day seems like a good day to get the Z-Scale train out.

Model trains are always fun. Tyler and I are running the train yard today. Z-Scale is hard though.

With all the amazing capabilities of the iPhone camera system, it still can’t expose snow properly. I have to up the exposure on all of them. Perhaps Apple needs some camera engineers that don’t live in California.

Well over a foot of snow to deal this morning. Heavy too with the warm temperatures recently. Had to go at the slowest speed.

Cleared three neighbors driveways out with my snowblower. Building karma points today. 👍🏻
