Hot Rod Day at the Capitol

MSRA Day on the Hill '09

One of the fringe benefits of working at the Legislature is having a front-row seat to all the activity that goes on in and around the Capitol Building. Usually it’s some kind of protest, but there are a couple of unique events that happen every year that always make me stop and look. Yesterday, the Minnesota Street Rod Association held their annual rally on the Capitol Mall. I don’t know what it is about these guys, but they always seem to pick a day when the weather is absolutely perfect. While the House was engrossed in a protracted debate on — appropriately — a transportation policy bill, I walked outside and snapped some pictures.
