Live from Minnesota: Day 2 Wrap Up

While I was sitting in the Pine Cone Cottage coffee shop I got to talking to the owner and asked him where a good place to eat was. He recommended a place called "Boston Garden" so I decided to check it out. It was sort of hole-in-the-wall place, plastic plaid table cloths and the like. The menu was simple and cheap, I had the French dip. And I had only the French dip, because that's the only thing I got. No fries, no pickle, not garnish. Just the French and the dip. I guess you get what you pay for. I went from a $41 tab last night at Jimmy's to a $9 tab (with generous tip) at Boston Garden.

After dinner I headed over to Brainco to sit in on a "Creative Solutions" class. The location of Brainco is in the Wells Fargo building here in Hopkins and Brainco occupies a small office area within the building. It seems like a decent place and all the students I met were very friendly. The class was basically just the students showing some rough ups they'd done for an assignment and getting feedback from each other and the professor, Paul Swiatek. All in all everything went pretty well and I'm looking forward to the full workshop tomorrow.

Good night and good luck.
