A friend of mine just moved to Minneapolis from the DC area. Incidentally, we were talking about this just yesterday and he told me he was surprised at how good the public spaces are there: lots of nice parks, walking/biking paths, urban infrastructure, bookstores, cafes, libraries, &c.
Downside is the winter, but I guess that's what Thinsulate was invented for.
- hockeybias 12y agoWe had 53 days below zero in Minneapolis last year. 53. We're off to a cool start this fall. a lake that usually freezes around Thanksgiving was covered with ice three days ago.

- wyclif 12y agoTell me more about the bicycle trail in Iowa. I've never heard about that.
