The shine on the brick laid streets is ready for a Hollywood movie.

The Roof, The Roof, The Roof Is On Fire
How could anyone pass up this rooftop advertisement? When you look to the left, the arrow points to a door, next to a parking garage. So a bit strange at first glance however, seven or eight flights up the stairwell and you've made it to the top.

The Shark Walls
I've often thought these two walls resemble the fins of two sharks passing by each other in the ocean. Do you see it?
What these walls are there for, I believe are to block headlights at night. You see, to the right of where I am standing is a roundabout. So as cars are coming around the bend, it seams like the headlights would shine into the traffic. Perhaps I am wrong, but I don't see any other reason why these walls would have been put in place. Street art?

Red Wing
The bluff always makes a statement when I drive through Red Wing, right in your face and lots of beauty to see.

Old University Avenue
I took this photo a few years ago. I'd forgotten I had taken it actually. Currently, they are building a train right down the middle of the road. I've heard it's a mess and haven't seen it personally. So, finding this photo was a surprise because I wish I had taken one, but here it was in my archives all along.

Largest Bumper Sticker
You are looking at the Twin Cities biggest bumper sticker. Yet, I'm really not sure how safe it is to bungee a wooden board to the back of your vehicle. I've read the sign several times and I believe the intent of the message is pro-health care, but honestly, I have no idea what the message is really trying to say. Whatever it is, I found it worthy of a photo.

Downtown Redwing
Don't blink, or you'll miss it....though the city has grown, the historic part of downtown Redwing is rather small. I've often been distracted by the large cliff ahead to notice much in the part of city.

The Road To Nowhere
The road was freshing paved, and freshly painted....it was so smooth to drive on.

Keep On Riding
If your in Minnehaha Park and are looking for a quick way to visit the park, these four person bike carts are available for renting. I'm unsure of the cost, but I did see plenty of these on the road during my time at the park.

To Cross Push Button
Since when did it become this difficult to cross the street? This crossing the street instructions have become so long, the light will turn red before you finish reading them all. What ever happened to simply 'Walk' and 'Don't Walk'?

Streets Of St Paul
A typical city street in St Paul. This photo is from the West Side neighborhood. I believe I was on Manomin Avenue and Winona Street looking North.

Looking Through The Bars
The decorative fencing, which separates the east bound traffic from the west gives a unique view of south bound 7th Street. I took this one while I was stopped for a red light on 7th Street and Wabasha in downtown St Paul. The fencing also doubles as crowd control while people in the Xcel Energy Center leave the building. The fencing forces those walking to their vehicles to cross at the street corners.
