Sosie's back in town

(There would have been a nice photo here of Sosie's selections, but Google is just too slow today to bother. Do they have the same problem at Facebook?)


Stan's sister Sosie is in town from Caliefornia. The reason we know is that she sent us this photo of the lunch she purchased for her brother Virg's family at the Eden Prairie Costco. Prominent in her display is the Shearer chips, a little-known product she has apparently come to believe is named after her. Sosie flew in two hours late in the dead of night. They were late, her pilot explained, because of weather conditions in California. Virg was there to get her and they're ready for a full afternoon of touristing in the Twin Cities, starting with the James J. Hill house on Summit Ave.
We'll do a drive-by of The Bank where the Vikings hope to play Monday night. Then on to the Mill City Museum in the flour district of Minneapolis. Isn't it great when relatives come to town so you can see your city?
