Kate and I went to the Macy’s Flower Show. \u00a0The Dayton’s flower show. \u00a0Anyhow, I’d never been but going once came because we’ve agreed that each of us has one time during the month that we can schedule whatever we want. \u00a0And the other one has to go along.<\/p>\n
Last month we went to the Loring Pasta Bar to listen to Hot Club of France type jazz (Kate’s choice) and to the Cynthia Hopkin’s performance, This Clement World at the Walker. \u00a0In a rut already I’ve chosen another Walker performance, a jazz pianist and his ensemble late in the month.<\/p>\n
Kate felt we weren’t doing enough together, too much like adults engaged in parallel play. \u00a0She quilts; I write. \u00a0She was right. \u00a0It was a habit and we broke it. \u00a0I’m glad we did.<\/p>\n
The best part of today’s outing was the Smack Shack. \u00a0A food truck that turned in its wheels for brick and mortar the Smack Shack serves po’ boys and lobster boils. \u00a0We had the lobster boil complete with the bib, shell crackers and tiny forks. \u00a0I haven’t eaten lobster in a very long time and it was fun.<\/p>\n
Turned out it was the Twin’s first day-time game this year, so I had to park about 6 blocks, long blocks, away–it’s on 6th and Washington North. \u00a0That turned out to be a treat because I could take a survey of this rapidly changing part of the city. \u00a0Lofts, luxury apartments, redone warehouses, new apartment buildings, lots of restaurants, design stores, gutted buildings and construction zones. \u00a0A fun, energized area, an area that used to be fairly dull commercial. \u00a0Not too long ago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
