Fountain photo-bomb

Noticed the reflection of the Minnesota Building in a fountain along Kellogg Boulevard and had just lined up the shot when this guy wandered into frame and added his own special something to the mix.

True Grid

We don’t think much of the physical nature of our electricity system, even though it’s all around us. To most of us it’s magic: flip a switch or twist a knob or press a button and the power is there. But we need to answer a lot of questions about the state of our grid: how we’ll upgrade it, how much it will cost, how we’ll pay for it, how we’ll keep it secure, and tons of others. Recommended book: “The Grid: The Fraying Wires Between Americans and Our Energy Future”, by Gretchen Bakke.
