"On my door I'd hang a sign
Gone fishin' instead of just a-wishin'
I stopped by your place a time or two lately
And you aren't home either"

Looks like a perfect spot for "gone fishin'"

I hope the weather in Eagan soon will be warmer - and I hope the same for Denmark.

In the foreground, is that the runway for Minny-sota's infamous B-52 size mosquitos?

Oh, this reminds me of a place I used to go to in my childhood in Pennsylvania. Peaceful, nostalgic.
