Wicked Wind from the North

It was a very windy day. We had wind advisories from the weather bureau which the TV weather creature says means wind at 30-35 mph. I deferred a bike ride and went to find a photo of the wind. This is a stretched out American flag down near Harriet Island, extended by the wind.



I walked along the river at Harriet Island and over the Wabasha Street bridge looking for one of the ceramic Science Museum dinosaurs. The wind lived up to the forecast. And I found this Renaissance Festival dino on the downtown side, very near the bridge. The dinosaurs are meant to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Science Museum. They are popping up all over St Paul.

I didn't know they rode dinosaurs in medieval times. That's a nice spot though -- tables in the sun and a nice vista for your viewing pleasure. Probably great on a nice sunny day in September. And that is a lot of wind. SS
