Greetings from mpls, city of contrasts I had a beautifully peaceful and provledged day in a city that doesn’t offer that to everyone . I woke up early and let Myles out of my moms apartment at

Bd went for a run along the Mississippi. This side of the city is beautiful and calm

Many of the beautiful restored new buildings aliongg the river are empty .. I think it’s a combination of covid and the cities recent turmoil. I snuck in to one just to look around . Beautiful and kinda spooky

When mom woke up we took a really nice 5 mile walk along both sides of the river .. then later o went for another 3 mile walk . It was a really nice way to spend a fat. We visited the same artist colony (the garage)we’d seen the day before .. again no one was there to ask about the place

We then headed over to mary and John’s . We all went to see Theo’s hockey game which. Was really fun . He’s a great skater ! He won nearly all of his fave offs and scott red for his team

It was fun hanging out with jake , mary and john. Whole we arched

The day ended una real restaurant ! My first inside dining in 14 months . Nice Mexican restaurant with real margaritas!

It almost felt normal !

More family stuff today !

Note all, nite sam

 we spent a really nice day walking around Minneapolis… It’s surprisingly pretty… And such a contrast to the story that we’ve been hearing so much since George Floyd’s murder… It’s definitely a city of different realities… Where we hung out was miles and centuries apart from the other reality that we’ve been seeing on the news.… Really got me thinking today how peoples lives can be Set a different just because the color of their skin



There are so many signs about the strife here all over the city

I’m glad to be here seeing my mom and my sister and her family… I’m also Glad to be here scene a tough moment in our country’s history… I’m hoping that what happened here I’ll make a very positive difference going forward in our collective future… I really hope so 

Night all,night Sam

I took my first airplane flight in more than 14 months today… At least you’re barely get to be your purse right now staying with my mom. It was so fun walking to the airport and doing all those Airplane things

It’s great being here with my mom… We just had sushi and cheese for dinner… Kind of an interesting combo but really yummy

My mom found it really nice set of instructions for raising kids that my father had recorded On his 75th birthday. They went like this:

I love the sentiment in here… He was such a good guy

… I need to sleep. More Tomorrow

Nite all, nite sam
