Trip to St. Paul: Part Four

After a rainy Saturday night, and a late night at Turf Club, we took it easy in the morning.  Gail and I took in some antique stores on Selby Ave., then hung around with Nick and Cassidy, chatting and listening to music.  It was a real treat to hear Cassidy's parents on an LP that they made back in 1973, I believe. 

Nick and Cassidy came over to our motel later in the afternoon, and it was off to Minneapolis to the Guthrie Theater to see a solo performance titled Moon Show 143, by Kyle Leven.  He combined acting, puppetry, music, and other visual arts to create moon myths from various cultures.  For example, kids in parts of Asia are taught that if they point at the moon, they will have an ear sliced off that night.

The Guthrie is spectacular with its long cantilevered hallway jutting out towards the Mississippi River.

From the top of the hill you see above, Nick and Gail got a little loopy.

Looking out the mirrored windows from the 5th floor of the theater.

Window shenanigans.

Looking down at the Stone Arch Bridge from the 5th floor observation deck.

Just had to have a hand-held camera shot!

One last look before the sun goes down and off to the show.
