Odd title, isn’t it? I was sitting around watching the animal channel on cable, something about the ‘Monster Inside Me’, a show about disgusting parasites that invade your body, while keeping a eye on twitter on my computer. @MNHeadhunter said ‘Please someone in Minneapolis get a pic of this amazing sky/sunset … ‘. Looked outside and saw a cool sunset indeed, as we often get after some severe weather moves through the area. So grabbed camera and headed to top of hill where I have a great view looking out west. Here’s there result.

Spring has finally arrived in Minnesota. Lawns are greening, trees are budding, birds are flirting. You can see it in the sky too. Clouds are beginning to look like they have some real moisture waiting to come down as rain, the air feels a bit humid, and unfortunately allergies are acting up for some.

Temps are going to be in the 80s today, and we’re supposed to get some thunderstorms this weekend. First of the season. I’m looking forward to it, though now I probably won’t be able to undertake another major vehicle maintenance challenge. After last weekend’s success (saving myself $500 now confirmed after getting a quote), I’m ready for another automobile repair challenge, like tackling that little leak in my truck’s transmission cooling line that apparently costs $100s to fix because ‘you have to remove many unrelated parts to get at it’. I have some ideas.
