The reason you can include the bikeway and so much parking is that Lyndale is unbelievably wide.

This very rusty old light post at Whittier Park collapsed to the ground during the school day today. This is the park right next to Whittier elementary.

Also @wedgelive.bsky.social check out my new wheels. It took me 9 mins to walk from the coop to 27th down Lyndale. Once I got over the stigma of looking like a dork, I found walking the the grocery store super easy. This is two very large bags of food plus I had milk and yogurt in my backpack

I made the mn flag a little better. This was before the committee moved the white strip to the middle. The proportions are more flag-like. And of course the star is now in the sky
