365 in 365: Images 147 through 153

Doubling up the picture posts this afternoon.  Most of these pictures are a hodgepodge of scenes around Minneapolis.  However, one picture was taken from the top of the Witch's Hat Water Tower.  Like a dialed down Brigadoon, once a year, visitors are allowed to climb to the top of the tower to survey the landscape during an ice cream social.  I've known about the event for a few years now, but have missed it because I either forgot or was severely hungover from a Vegas trip.  This year, I put the event on my iPhone calendar and made it in spite of the rainy weather.

I can't believe I didn't make plans to take a "milestone" picture for
the 150th picture; instead, have to use a placeholder.
