Parade of Homes

Went to see the Parade of Homes today, the final day for it. Saw 6 homes in all with my date, one was in Little Canada, where I once lived. 3 were in Eagan, 2 in Edina. Memorable will be the one where it was a $5 admission fee, it meant not just taking off shoes but also putting on those booties like in the hospital or the airport. Some were hard to find with GPS, so it meant going low-tech and looking at the given map. Found out it was due to some homes being in new neighborhoods where the streets had just been finished. One of them had an Ansel Adams book, I flipped through it. All of them had interior designers to make them look lived-in. There was plenty of old movie posters in the basement of one, a 'man-cave' which had a game room and a big movie/TV screen. Liked the Simpsons episode tonight as it was about Theodore Roosevelt, it prompted me to look up IMDB to find out what movies had a TR character in them besides 'Night at Museum' and its sequel, and there were 2 about his time with the Rough Riders.
