Today was the first day of autumn. It seemed much like summer, except that the length of the day has shortened. Lacking a tennis matchup, I took another bike ride around the city. It was windy, not as windy as Friday, but windy enough. I rode up to Hamline and through residential streets making a loop back through the Macalester campus and along St Clair to home. It was a meandering 11 mile journey and mostly out of the wind. I have a picture of one of the street art figurines that St Paul has been putting up over the last several years. This one stands in front of the vets office where we used to take Taggy for his rabies shots. They always treated Taggy with TLC. The art is Woodstock acting like a doggy doctor for Snoopy. It's the right place for this particular piece of art.
There are no alpaca farms in St Paul, so there will be no photos of those particular exotics on this blog. There may be something comparable at the Hoofed Animals building at the Como Zoo. I know that they have giraffes, bison and ostriches, but I don't think they have llamas or alpacas.
Herb spent another weekend in Chicago. There's a pretty good zoo in Chicago, too.

That's a cute photo of the Snoopy genre. Sounds like a nice fall day and a nice bike ride. I'm pretty sure cold and nasty is just around the corner, though. SS
