Day on the Town

This was the beginning of a photo excursion for my sister's photography art class. We went around to some of the iconic places in Minnesota. We hit the state fair, Hamline University right accross the way in St. Paul. Then we made sure to get some of the cool buildings in downtown St. Paul, it's our capital, but it's not as big as Minneapolis....but since they're pretty much the same thing (hence the twin cities) it doesn't really matter. You can probably get cheaper parking in St. Paul though. Anyway, so we got the Fitzgerald theater, yes....that IS F. Scott Fitzgerald, he was one of ours. A Minnesotan....St.Paulite....cool guy. I really liked the Great Gatsby. Plus, unlike Charles Schultz, he actually liked the community, stuck around a bit, went to his theatre and liked Prarie Home Companion. We also made sure to get the capitol itself (ahh, reminisce about my internship) Oh and T. Paw, or Tim Pawlenty...coolest governor ever. Then we hit the St. Paul Cathedral and pretty much after that went on to MPLS.
