Various good news
Our dryer is fixed! After several weeks of denial I finally admitted that the dryer was not heating up reliably and clothes were taking forever to dry. Called our favorite repairman: Sergio (aka Appliance Repair Minneapolis). As always, he was prompt, polite, patient, knowledgeable, and inexpensive. He wore a mask without having to be reminded. In about 15 minutes he had it fixed, and took a few more minutes to explain what was wrong. Highly recommended.

More expert sources are starting to agree with my crackpot theory that we are much closer to herd immunity than is generally believed. Here's another one.

It is a spectacularly beautiful day. I took a different route on my morning bike ride and had breakfast at Dunn Bros Coffee Shop at 34th and Hennepin. Then realized that I was only 1/2 mile from Lund's, which I had been planning to visit anyway to make use of one of my credit card special promos ($5 back on $10 spend!). Not only a mere 4 blocks, but a PLEASANT 4 blocks up Humboldt. That went so well I might start shopping at Lunds more often. It's not the absolutely closest full service grocery, but within easy biking range and entirely over pleasant residential streets.
