JamesMy son recently launched a <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/WeatherBalloon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WeatherBalloon</a> with a <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/camera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#camera</a> and some instruments. This <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/photo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#photo</a> is from about 30km up just before the <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/balloon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#balloon</a> burst. It's really cool that you can begin to see the curvature of the <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Earth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Earth</a> from this height and see the darkness of <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/space" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#space</a>. I was on an airliner in this area on the same day and saw some of the same clouds and frozen rivers & lakes my son captured in his photos. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#photography</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/weather" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#weather</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Minnesota" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Minnesota</a>

Bruce MacDonaldWell done folo on the closing of the downtown grocery in Minnesota's capital city. Feat. chihuahua Peligroso."City leaders said they are determined to get a grocer inside the space on the corner of Robert and East 10th streets. No contenders have been named to date, but [city council president Rebecca] Noecker said the city is not limiting the field: it will consider co-ops, local stores or national chains."Lunds & Byerlys said it will partner with the city and landlord to keep store equipment and infrastructure in place for a future grocery store."The new grocer will be looking at a different St. Paul than the one Lunds faced its opening year in 2014. The downtown population back then was 5,000, according to the Downtown Alliance. Today, it’s nearly 10,000 residents." <a href="https://www.mprnews.org/story/2025/03/26/downtown-st-paul-lunds-byerlys-closes" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.mprnews.org/story/2025/03/26/downtown-st-paul-lunds-byerlys-closes</a><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/grocery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#grocery</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/DowntownLiving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DowntownLiving</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Minnesota" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Minnesota</a>
