You can see more photos from Occupy MN! at North Metro Photo. When we went down there, I expected an encampment, but never such a sea of junk. Several workers in the area said that people would just drive up and drop off stuff for them. I’ve gone to photograph the tea parties as well, but they only gathered for a couple hours and then they picked up all the litter in the area on their way out.

They've been doing some work on the bridges over the past weeks; it seems that they are widening the trail so they can separate the pedestrians from the bikes. Not a bad idea, it gets crowded up there sometimes.]]> http://www.mitchster.com/2011/06/06/busy-sunday-at-the-lagoon/feed/ 0
