Ok, it is common to see some things stuck on water falls. Trees are one of them...

Motor boats are not! Good grief! I really wonder how someone got into that mess. And how they got out of it! Crazy!

The geese are now swimming in a single file line along Nicollet Island...

This is looking down the main hallway in the Minneapolis post office. The other end is way down there. They are open until 11pm on weekdays, so I am happy.

Crazy. Every time I bring the camera downtown, there is some big thing going on here. This time it's the Twin Cities Ribfest.

Ok, what are the things on the top of that brown building? I have been wondering this for awhile. The building is owned by a TV station.

A giant inflatable pig holding some ribs. Right.

They look like port-a-potties, but they are atm machines. What will they think of next?

All of the places selling ribs have a million colorful banners listing the various other Ribfests they have "won".

Skyways are really big here. I guess because of the harsh winters. You can walk almost anywhere downtown without ever leaving the second floor of these buildings. Pretty cool. And they even plan ahead for when the parking lot grows into a skyscraper. :)

I didn't notice when I took the picture, but there's a random video camera on that street lamp.

The clock tower during the day. I'm still not sure what this building is.

This little park thing is between the courthouse and the clock tower building. (Good place for a little protest if I do say so myself. :)

Courthouse flag.

There's all these little metal people...
