haddayr posted a link in passing on her journal to the Powderhorn 365 Project, where photographers in the Powderhorn area post a beautiful photograph every day of people and places in that neighborhood. I've syndicated it as a feed: friend powderhorn365_feed to have a lovely Minneapolis picture appear on your friends page.

I'm really quite intrigued by this project and considering doing it in my own neighborhood (Standish-Ericsson) next year. I quite enjoyed doing the day in the life photo meme last summer. I emailed my own neighborhood association, and they were interested in the idea, too, and asked if I knew any other photographers in my neighborhood. It looks as though the Powderhorn group has a rotating group of seven photographers (with the occasional guest fill in) so it would mean a commitment of taking one good photograph a week.

Anyone else in Standish Ericsson interested?

Best. Wedding. Procession. Ever.

If you're going to dance at your wedding, why not get started early? I don't know this couple at all, but this exuberant, delightful wedding procession moved me to both laughter and tears. Thanks to haddayr for the link.

Edited to add: Read on another blog that this wedding took place right in my own backyard: St. Paul, Minnesota.

I like what he has to say about nerds. It's a great reason for embracing the title proudly.
