Twin City Photos

Short walk this morning at the Stone Arch Bridge. Got the obligatory shots of Mill City from across the river. But actually found the back of the Soapfactory building to be far more interesting.

Silverwood Park is a brand spanking new park located at Silver Lake in St. Anthony. All the wood used in the construction of the visitor center came from trees cleared to construct the grounds. This photo was taken on 9/11, hence the flags at half mast.

Our photo meetup on Saturday as usual was a ton of fun. Met a couple of new people, Alison, and Dan J. It was pretty toasty out there, around 90, but at least the humidity was down. We ended up at the Guthrie Theater, where a couple of nice cold Blue Moon beers really hit the spot. This photo looks out of a mirror lined window from the top floor at the Guthrie Theater, capturing St. Anthony Falls and the Stone Arch Bridge.

Along the banks of the Mississippi, the old Pillsbury Mill and the power lines from the NSP river power plant both reach for the sky.
