Between last night\u2019s post and tonight two things happened.\u00a0 First, my wife and I acted like tourists.\u00a0 After finishing pedaling yesterday we went to a street and food truck fair for dinner, instead of eating in a restaurant. Then we drove to downtown Minneapolis to watch a very large fireworks show that they were holding along the river.<\/p>\n

Doing both of these things felt a bit weird.\u00a0 Normally, my night is structured differently.\u00a0 I typically get off the bike, take a shower, eat, type a blog entry and pass out.\u00a0 Doing touristy things felt quite strange but both were a lot of fun.<\/p>\n

The second thing that happened was while pedaling today.\u00a0 In the early part of the trip if I came to a sign that said \u201cRoad Closed\u201d I was in trouble.\u00a0 This sign meant the road was really off limits.<\/p>\n

Today, I came to one of these signs and tried to figure out what to do.\u00a0 In Minnesota, I guess \u201cRoad Closed\u201d doesn\u2019t mean that since many of the roads have people living along the road.\u00a0 I decided to see how far I could travel down the closed road. \u00a0 Not only did I make it all the way (about 5 miles), but I was passed by a dozen cars, including one police car.\u00a0 It is funny how the same sign in two different states means such different things.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
