Pilgrimage to St. Urho

Saturday was Andy's birthday and so he and Ella and I headed north for our first camping trip of the season. On the way we made a pilgrimage to Menahga, MN to see the giant statue of Saint Urho. I love the part where the the writer of the plaque felt the need to clarify that it was the men who changed clothing, not the grasshoppers.

Flower Garden Daydreaming

As I plant my first garden in over a decade, I remember "helping" Grandpa Ed in his.

The painting Daydream is available at Art Star Gallery.

In Loving Memory

This was the first new bike I ever owned. I bought it at FreeWheel Bicycle Store in Minneapolis in the Fall of '97. This is us at the Pacific Ocean. I loved this bike. It's the bike that made me love biking. I rode it 24/7/365. When it was stolen in '04 it was sporting nerve flower pattern white wall tires and a black leather hello kitty bike seat. I still look for this bicycle everywhere I go.

Bicycles, bike riding, and bicycle culture have largely infuenced my life and my art.
