It was a gorgeous Saturday in the Twin Cities and a great day to be pedaling around. We made the most of the day with some gardening, a trip to the Midtown Farmer's Market, and a side bike trip to check out a beautiful street mural done by a friend. Here are a few pics.
With both kids needing a nap, we extended our route to check out this beautiful street mural. This shows a part of it at 19th Ave. S. and 34th Street, right next to the Corcoran Park building in south Minneapolis. Henry was asleep in no time, but Theo was up long enough for the mural and to spot the ice cream truck ahead of us. After three blocks in hot pursuit we caught up to it. Mmm... popsicles.
The middle of a long nap for both boys in the Kangaroo. I guess we should have kept Theo strapped in!
To make way for a new ironwood tree in our yard, we moved Theo's beloved white currant bush to a another spot. Here he is pedaling it across the yard in his tractor wagon. That rig comes in handy!
With the currant transplanted we caught the tail-end of the Midtown Farmer's Market. We saw this super figure puppet show by two guys from Open Eye Figure Theater. They have this fun, whimsical stage built on the base of a Burley kid bike trailer!
Here are the artists riding away on their tandem with the theater trailing behind. They said it is especially good for promoting Open Eye Theater at large festivals...and for lunch money.
