Fireplug Hazed by a Snowthrower

Still fun to say Fireplug isn't it? Here's one that was doing just fine until it got hit with a snowthrower. Weren't they called snowblowers? I was looking at the Fleet-Farm catalog this weekend and they were selling snowthrowers. I though I was a snow thrower — you know, if it's good & packy. Is there a technical difference between a snowthrower and a snowblower? Anyhow, this was taken at night with a f1/1.4 50mm wide open at 200 iso, hand-held. That's the Uptown Dunn Bros in the distance.

Merry Christmas!

This picture was taken from atop the History Center on a very cold and windy night, thanks to a friend with access and a heavy tripod. Merry Christmas & thanks to all of you for reading and commenting this year.

Minneapolis Snowmageddon at Night

The storm that came through here was the 5th biggest storm snowfall in history at 17.2 inches, and the biggest one since the infamous Halloween snowfall of 1992. It stopped snowing Saturday night and I headed down to Lake and Hennepin with my friends Tom & Ashley. Not many places were open, but ones that were were packed. The piles were pretty big, but nobody had really shoveled yet. I'm itching to get out today and see what I can see. Maybe I can venture downtown and check out the Metrodome roof collapse.

Target Plaza

I need to find out more about this building; every time I see it at night I'm blown away by such a brilliant idea. It was completed around 9/2001 and they had it rolling red, white and blue for the months following that day.
