Air it out

Table for one

A bit of R&R at Atomic Liquors, the oldest freestanding bar in Las Vegas. Originally opened in 1945 as "Virginia's Cafe", renamed to "Atomic Liquors" in 1952 in honor of the bomb testing going on out in the desert and the high-powered cocktails one of the owners was known to make. Barbara Streisand has an honorary stool there.

Marginal


Mississippi River at Hidden Falls Park, Saint Paul, MN. Shot this on a recent walk there while the weather was still temperate. Looks like today we finally get the big turn and dip into a more winter-like climate, with a bit of snow predicted later in the afternoon.
