Happy Easter from Easter

The Easter Lutheran Church sanctuary awaited the first Easter morning worship service to transition from Good Friday. Celebrate!

Walking the Cross

The wooden cross was carried from Easter Lutheran Church to St. John Neumann Catholic Church to Eagan City Hall to Dakota County Library to Glacier Hills School to a park to All Saints Lutheran Church to Advent United Methodist Church and finally ended at Crossroads Church.  A huge crowd participated in this annual Good Friday tradition.

I mailed my taxes to Uncle Sam on Tuesday morning on my way to work. Cashectomy!

Need your car washed or detailed? 

Days are numbered...

The EAGAN water tower off Pilot Knob Road will be torn down…. rumor has it.  I don't know the details but maybe a blog following city employee will comment...

Saturday salad supper

Almonds, raisins, green peppers and tuna on a bed of greens! What did you have for dinner?

Sunroof season

Blue skies and 64 degrees on Friday afternoon...

Ice, be gone!

Wonderful to see open water on Thomas Lake again! 

Spring….finally!

All of us Eaganites shouted for joy with warm, sunny weather today! It's been a long, very cold, very snowy winter!

A 65 year old woman was filling up her HUMMER with gas next to my navy, ordinary station wagon! 

Heavenly...

I was thrilled driving home:
1. Most of the snow has melted
2. It was 63 degrees
3. My moonroof was open
4. Blue skies & puffy clouds
5. Good day at my office
6. Swedish music was playing
7. Dinner was almost ready

Got toothpicks?

A lot of wood is used in building Minnesota houses...

Our neighbors built a snowman on Friday after Thursday night's blizzard.

Where am I?

Any guesses where I am? Jon saw me taking this photo - shhhh, Jon! 

Doodle dog

In my rush to get to my office, I forgot to ask this nice woman her name and her dog's name. Looks like a Poodle mix of some sort. (Unedited, uncropped photo - I'm not in my blogging den.)

Ice time

Many children in different skill levels were learning to better ice-skate!
