Long walk, blue sky, lake country.

Painting time!

Well, two out of three enjoyed the walk this afternoon. Abe, however, was a bit cranky.

Window shopping. (One of the dishes at this place is awesomely named “The Prime Rib of Miss Jean Brodie.”)

Many of Osip Mandelstam’s own poems only exist today because they were memorized by his wife & friends before they were burned.

Happy birthday, Abe & Sam!

Giant snow octopus. Only in New Brighton.
