Friday May 31st, 2024 is Bay View Gallery Night in Milwaukee. Last time I just went up and down KK and didn't really stray from there but we'll see how it goes this time.
(I had hoped to show/sell my own art but couldn't find a venue willing to take me.)
The 'Corpse Flower,' also known as “U’Reeka," was given its nickname due to its smell, with some describing its short-lived bloom as smelling like rotting meat, that "offends the human nose."
Thank you Mother Nature for the crummy weather this weekend. There have been almost no motorcycles on our block! And later this week the council will vote to approve covering almost the entire length of Prospect Ave in speed tables and bumpouts. Things are looking up! #Milwaukee
I felt pretty good this morning so got the bike out for a ride and managed to get 5 miles in under 30 minutes, which has been a goal for a while! Finally got my average speed over 10mph. Whew!
Nope. I've been to my last #Milwaukee Symphony concert. I've seen rude audiences there before, but this was beyond the limit. If your kids are too little to sit still, leave them at home. And if you're too sick to stop coughing, stay home yourself. People paid good money for those tickets. #MSO
Symphony ticket, check. Clothes ironed, check. Bus schedule, check. I'm ready to hear the #Milwaukee Symphony play Takemitsu's "From me flows what you call Time"!
My bike ride today was only 4.5 miles... It was pretty windy and started to rain so I called it and headed home.
The great thing about the cemetery is that when you reach an intersection you often have multiple choices and some might be uphill, some might be downhill, or flat, so you can choose your adventure.
Finally got off the fence and bought a good ticket to #Milwaukee Symphony's upcoming performance of Takemitsu's "From me flows what you call Time". Masur is conducting! Looking forward to hearing it in MSO's over-the-top but acoustically excellent hall. Front row balcony!
I did manage to do 6 miles today in about 38 minutes. I have rode the last few days due to rain or feeling unwell in the morning. I've also been on medication that prevents me from being in the sun but this is the last day of that.
