Ride that river.

A major landmark in Minneapolis is a giant cherry poised at the tip of a more giant spoon. It spans a small pond, and is loved by geese and pedestrians alike. Minneapolis is not overtly style-conscious. It has its fair share of hipsters, scenesters and hangers-on, but that isn't where style lives either. Something in the spirit of constructing a monolithic spoon-on-cherry as part of your identity gives a hint what this place is about. There is style here, and a lot of receptivity for new style. When I walk around in Vane gear, people ask, eyebrows raise, and the online catalog gets some Minnesota love.

But I still love the hell of out Brooklyn.
