Found a very crabby rock in the garden, going to use a shovel to relocate it to better habitat down by the river. #turtle #MNastodon

A small snapping turtle looks balefully at the camera from a patch of dirt next to some thyme plants.

Our hot #fourthofjuly about to get rained out.

The image depicts a tranquil lake scene under a dramatic sky. In the foreground, the calm water reflects the surrounding greenery and the overcast sky, creating a serene atmosphere. The lake is bordered by lush trees on the left side, with a dense canopy of green foliage. The background features a line of trees along the far shore, adding depth to the scene. The sky is filled with dark, heavy clouds, suggesting an impending storm, with rain visible in the distance. The overall color palette is dominated by shades of gray and green, with the water appearing dark and reflective. The image captures a moment of natural beauty, with the contrast between the calm water and the turbulent sky creating a striking visual.

This branch of our 20 year old rose bush has grown up through a crack in our deck. Being able to smell the blooms and how happy the bees are about it make us less likely to trim it back. 😅

Every fall I do a Cancer awareness ride across Minnesota titled RideMN1 (ridemn1.org). It’s always rural so we have a supporter bring the loo with us. Yesterday I was walking the dogs in town and spotted this beauty on a side street. We’re going to have to up our game. #BikeTooter #fuckcancer #MNastodon #RideMN1

A small road trailer parked on a city street. On the trailer is a small outhouse the size of a port-a-potty, with wood sides and a peaked roof. A small cresent moon shape is carved into the wood above the door to the outhouse. A sign says “Bath house” attached just below the roof line. Trees are visible on both sides of the street behind the vehicles.

A small pickup truck with a trailier parked on a small roadside stop. The trailer is very low to the road and has a portable toilet (port-a-potty) mounted on it. The passenger side door has been painted with a message “Biking to end Cancer, RIDEMN1.ORG”. A group of cycilists can be seen picture left behind the truck with coolers, camp chairs, and bikes around them. Dense trees are behind the group in the background.

For those of you visiting #Minnesota and freaking out about the storm sirens that went off 20 minutes ago (on a beautiful sunny day): it's ok, tornados legally aren't allowed to strike on the 1st Wednesday of each month between 1-2pm.

Great essay in Sahan Journal on 50 years of Hmong folks in #MNAstodon. Useful to #TeachWorldHistory #TeachUSHistory and here in Minnesota to teach MN Studies which is the standard 6th grade class here:

The #Tornado Watches/Warnings have expired & no-one seems to be talking about any current twisters still active. We're still under a Severe #Thunderstorm Watch in most the #TwinCitiesMetro

Stay in your safe spaces and away from windows for a bit! There are still "damaging winds" in the area.
