Lake Harriet / Minneapolis, MN

I love the outdoors for so many reasons, but watching the light and how it shifts and changes over the course of a day really works at my heart like nothing else.  This photo was taken at sunset, in late November of this year, while Musky fishing. Winter light in Minnesota is worth staying here for. I'm hoping to get out and use it a lot more than in previous years.

Brandon

My wife and I are minutes away from heading down to Rochester, MN where my brother-in-law is about to undergo surgery for colon cancer.  Brandon has been through so much up to this point, including weeks of chemo and radiation treatment. I covet your prayers and support for him right now.  At 5:45 a.m. on Thursday he will head to the Mayo Clinic and begin prep for a surgery that could take half the day or more.  If you are reading this anytime tonight or Thursday please stop and PRAY.  Thanks for all your support. **update on Brandon 12/8 - Surgery was a success and went very well, but now the long road to full recovery has begun.  Please keep praying.  Brandon will be recovering from surgery for 7-10 days and will need another 4 months or so of Chemo therapy.  What a heroic time for Brandon.  By God's help, he has made it thus far, but needs our prayers and support even more now. Keep it up!

 

we love you Brandon.
