Commitment Day 2015 Lifetime Fitness- and me.

Commitment@ 10 AM Thank You Lifetime, I borrowed your banner. I will be running - I believe that is what I will call it - tomorrow at 10am to kick off 2015. I have not run a "race" in 20 years and I really need a new T-shirt. I hope the sky is clear and the temperature above zero.

Waves of Gray

Waves of gray Not amber, gray. The cold waves of blown snow wander outward from Excelsior Bay. The year 2014 ending.

Ice Dive

ALARC Ice Dive 2015 Excelsior Bayview Center I will not be up to my voyeuristic antics. I usually take photos at what was previously called “The Polar Plunge”. Now the "Ice Dive" on January 1. I will be participating in the Lifetime Fitness "Commitment" 5K at 10am.Hopefully I can get a few photos there. They will not have the eye and emotional appeal of swimsuits in sub zero.... Last year: point jump

St.Albans Bay Saturday @ 7am

St. Albans Bay, Lake Minnetonka
Minnetonka Boulevard was clear of snow, and a light mist hung in the air. The ice on the lake is making a temporary retreat as the temperatures reached the low 50s over the weekend.
