Neighborhood Pictures

Mears Park
It seems my New Years resolution to post more often to this blog is already in deep trouble. But, I did manage to take some pictures with my new camera. Still trying to figure out how to get the most out of it, but here are some night shots from the walk Mr. Lofty and I took tonight.

Coborn's Delivers

Mr. Lofty registered for Coborn's Delivery earlier this week, but hasn't used it yet. Several people in the building jumped right on this grocery delivery service, which replaced Simon Delivers, as soon as they started downtown. With gas prices down to $1.99 a gallon at the SA on our corner, the $5 charge for delivery of orders of $50-$100 isn't the bargain it was-fuel wise. But, not having to go grocery shopping after work, or eat into the weekends with the chore makes it look like a bargain at twice the price. If you have experience with Coborn's Delivers, good or bad, please leave a comment.

In other grocery news. Bud Kleppe at Your St. Paul Homerealty blog reports Byerly's is going to be part of the new development plans for the Penfield Condos site. (A hotel and rental apartments to replace the luxury condo plans.)
