| Minnehaha Falls |
Took my first long (33 mile) bike ride of the year yesterday. I followed a series of bike trails which took me along Theodore Wirth Parkway, Minneapolis' chain of lakes and then down along Minnehaha Parkway to Minnehaha Falls. I wanted to see the falls during its peak run off period.
Much to my surprise when I got to the falls there was smoke rising. No, the creek didn't catch fire. Rather, there was a work group from Prairie Restoration. They were out cutting and burning brush and trees, with plans of restoring a natural habitat.

On the way home I stopped a few places to take some pictures. There was brilliant sun shine and a high of around 60 degrees. After an extremely long, snowy winter I have to believe that even the greatest of skeptics were smiling and crying out "hallelujah", there is indeed life after death!
stunning photos, I esp like the last one.
