Twin Cities

I was able to visit Minneapolis, MN last week for a two day work event.  I had never been in Minneapolis let alone Minnesota so I was anxious to experience it.  The flight there was smooth but I don't think Minnesota knew that winter was over.  It was in the 30's and rainy both days I was there.  I did see some late April snow as well but no accumulation.  The work was fine but the highlight of the trip was the sky walk.  Every building in downtown Minneapolis is connected but over street, indoor walkways.  There are lots of stores and restaurants throughout the sky walk and I was told it actually extends 15 miles.  Even Minneapolis makes Charlotte seem small.  I wish the weather was nicer and I had more time to explore but I found it to be a pretty cool place.  The winters must be absolutely brutal but a lot of people live there and the economy is strong.  Not a city for me but some place I hope to visit again.

Until tomorrow,
Dave
