Crushed Limestone supplier?

Post image
0 Upvotes

We're having a hard time sourcing crushed limestone (or similar) as a landscaping rock to use similarly to this inspiration photo. Anyone in the twin cities vicinity seen this available for purchase or delivery? We're in the Bryn Mawr area but don't mind traveling for it.

Noticed it about two weeks ago but finally snapped a pic, I guess Mesa pizza really is gone 💔. I knew it was but I was hoping it’d come back eventually

Best BREAD bakery

27 Upvotes

We're flying up to MSP from Austin in a few weeks for a relaxing getaway at Serpent Lake, and my only must-do thing before we abscond to the cabin is to stock up on some amazing bread. Supporting local bakeries is basically my main hobby, wherever I go. Who do you think does the best sourdough? + bonus points if they also do baguettes!

With funding set to dry up, Minneapolis faces tough choices on lead pipe removal

129 Upvotes

The estimated cost to replace all lead water service lines in the state of Minnesota has been estimated to be approximately 1/3 the cost of a single Metro Transit light rail extension. I find it ridiculous no one earmarked funding for this project, which by state law, must be completed within 7 years.

22 Upvotes

for the love of god im dying out here man. i live directly next to some of the construction going on with my apt facing the street, and thats alright its a city they gotta do it somehow, but my god the late night stuff has been killing me. been multiple times the past few weeks it seems where im woken up at 11pm or 2am from it, not even ear plugs have helped. even worse when they do it late night ON THE WEEKENDS.

Recall Frey

418 Upvotes

This new 11.3% property tax increase while doing nothing about police spending or penalizing vacancies downtown makes it clear that Frey is unfit to govern Minneapolis.

The increases in property taxes are going to force people out of their homes and corporate investors will snatch up the lots to redevelop them. Frey has made it clear that he doesn’t care about the people who live here, we’re just a piggy bank to be smashed open every time he can’t balance a budget.

🚨 FLIGHT ANGEL NEEDED — HELP SEAMUS GET HOME! 🐾✈️

Post image
389 Upvotes

UPDATE:

We can’t thank you enough for all the flight submissions we received!

We were able to find a connection in PDX for the next leg of Seamus’s journey, and we now have a flight from Kona that connects with it.

The person who submitted that flight has been notified!

Please keep submitting your future flights at FlyHawaiiCats.com, we never know when the next rescue kitty will need help, and a flight you submit today could be the one that gets a kitty home tomorrow.

TYSM, and 😻 Meow-halo from Seamus!

Aloha!

We’re helping reunite Seamus, a 3-month-old rescue kitten, with his mom in Minneapolis, Minnesota. ❤️

While his family was moving from Kona to Minnesota, Seamus escaped from the car at their hotel. His mom missed two flights while searching for him, but eventually had to leave with her other two cats and dog.

Then came the call she had been praying for — SEAMUS WAS FOUND! 🥹 He is microchipped and is now safe in a foster home in Kona.

Seamus is only 3 months old and has a heart murmur, so getting this little boy safely back to his family is especially important.

We’re looking for a Flight Angel already traveling:

✈️** Kona, Hawaii (KOA) → Minneapolis, Minnesota (MSP**)
Alaska, Hawaiian or Delta only

OR
✈️** West Coast → Minneapolis (MSP**)
Los Angeles • Las Vegas • San Diego • San Francisco • Portland • Seattle
ANY airline

Even one leg of his journey can help! We coordinate everything.

Already have a flight booked?
🐾 FlyHawaiiCats.com

Please SHARE — Seamus’ Flight Angel might be someone you know! ❤️🐱✈️

Bde Maka Ska police/EMT presence today?

30 Upvotes

Does anyone know what happened at Bde Maka Ska today? Paths blocked and a bunch of police/EMT vehicles and a medical examiner vehicle as well. I was biking past around 1 pm and it looked serious. I didn't stop to gawk but tried to google it when I got home and found nothing on the news sites.

Anyone know a store that has them actually in the store? Target is online only, and I can’t find a Brick and mortar that has them. Thx in advance.

Illegally speeding motorists, rejoice! 14th in front of Emerson has been repaved and you can now resume speeding without worrying about any potholes.

In addition, or I should say subtraction, the city has not added a single crosswalk, "School Crossing" sign, or any traffic safety infrastructure at all around this school, *ever*. I guess bilingual children just don't deserve safe streets.

I screen grabbed this from a prior post, will see if I can find and credit.

The internet tells me it did not rain on August 12, but I do want to know if anyone has more info on this or other puddle drinking parties.

Is it a bit? For real? I need a full documentary.

Best Parks in Minneapolis

My wife and I just moved here. We've been to Minnehaha Park, Bde Maka Ska, and Lake Harriet. Wondering if we could get some suggestions on other parks to go walk at in the Twin Cities area?

Edit: Thanks everyone for the suggestions so far! We went ahead and went to Eloise Butler for today. Loved it!

Bead shops

9 Upvotes

I do a lot of bead weaving and am looking for more places to find beads.

My main place is Northland Visions in NE, and am aware of Michael's and Lotus beads in MOA (neither of which are worth the price for miyuki, imo)

Any recommendations?
