Snowy welcome back

Yesterday morning, I was walking on Santa Monica beach in California. This morning, my view contrasts greatly.... 

Outta gas

My car was out of gas. At Holiday station, I paid $2.39 per gallon. How much is gas where you live? 

Balcony dog

Can you see the Christmas dog up on the senior apartment balcony? Woof! 

Simple setting

The table was set for Christmas Day lunch.

Christmas Day

This Christmas view lit up the night in Eagan's nearby neighboring city .... Prior Lake. 

Christmas Eve

Not much longer until the presents will be opened and the Christmas joy will begin! 

Senior housing

"Lexington Pointe," an independent and assisting living / memory care facility, is currently under construction on Yankee Doodle Road and Lexington Avenue. The babyboomers are aging….

Skyscraper

Eagan's only "skyscraper" is less than 15 floors tall. Formally a corporate office building, now it's a luxury apartment building.

Winter sunrise

It was almost 7 am and the sky was beautiful already - sunrise!

Sweater sale

Those infamous, funny, "ugly Christmas sweaters" are now on sale at Kohl's and other stores!

Winter Concert

Several choirs joined together in song. Then they took turns singing at the Monday night concert at Eastview High School. 

Frosty on Diffley

Can you hear the song...... "Frosty the Snowman"

Curtain call

The Boyland Sisters took a bow during curtain call on Saturday night at Eastview High School's  last performance of the musical, "Annie." 

Tower and tree

The Christmas tree looks so simple and beautiful in the crisp night air behind the Eagan Community Center. 

Silent night.....Sunday night

It was very quiet near the pond behind the Eagan Community Center... 

Frosty the Snowman

This snowman greets friends who visit and people who drive by.... like I did!

Christmas party

The Eagan Noon Rotary Club gathered at John and Jan's house for our annual Christmas party. You know.... wine, beverages, good food, chatting, singing Christmas carols. This photo captured about a third of the total group gathered. 

A snow day in Advent

Less than two weeks until Christmas. Are you ready? 

Brrrr, it's cold outside!

Sitting at the stoplight on Tuesday night, I realized it was -2 degrees Fahrenheit (-19 Celsius)!
Wind chill warning right now!

Purple snow

The sun was setting in Eagan as we drove past Bremer Bank.... 

In the bleak mid winter

I love the simplicity of these light blue colored Christmas lights. What do you think? 

Church bells

Christ Lutheran Church beacons worshippers to church with its bells. Advent dinners and Christmas services are posted.

City tree lighting ceremony

This week, Eaganites gathered on Thursday evening to watch the lighting of this year's magnificent Christmas tree at the Eagan Community Center. "Eagan TV" submitted this photo.
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum...…

Yule yard decos

These Christmas characters caught my attention as I drove home from work. Even the Grinch! 

Before winter's arrival

Fading autumn colors. No snow. A bit of ice.

Candles and lotions

Need some stocking stuffer ideas? Head over to the Eagan Outlet mall. 

Semi-enclosed

Some overhead enclosures protect the holiday shoppers but do dress warmly as we enter into winter.
On a cold, evening......

decidedly different and divine

What do you think of this modern sculpture in front of the Eagan Art House?

One never knows what one can find when grocery shopping......
