up your architecture.

If you haven't been to Nye's Polonaise Room in the St. Anthony area of Minneapolis, you need to go. Now. Quite simply it is one of the best bars I have ever been in. The atmosphere is great, the music is fun, and the drinks are generous. If that weren't enough, there's a live piano player (Lou) that you can sing along with. In another recent tradition, whenever I come home I tend to gather with the Biloxi gang and a couple of Minneapolis friends for drinks and photo booth-ing afterwhich we all take one of the photostrips. This time we had a mini-Southwest reunion with one of Sam's friends, Sam himself, and my friend Anderson and were treated to a great band playing in the polka room which did a really funny cover of the Spider-Man theme song. Trouble decided that she wanted to take pictures even when the photo booth wasn't going, so here's a couple of choice pics from the Shana files.
