This certainly doesn’t qualify as one of the more attractive photos, but I guess it tells the story of my day. It was a very damp but pleasant ride to work but I required some improvised drying techniques to get ready for the ride home. Thankfully no one dropped by my desk during the day.
It was Alex’s birthday today and a nice celebration was in order. I got this picture of my Mother in high spirits.
Some nights, the prospect of cooking after a long day of working doesn’t have much appeal. Unfortunately, some of the best remedies to this problem aren’t the healthiest.
I hadn’t driven to work since early September and my drive home in traffic reassured me that I don’t miss that type of commute.
Runner Up:
It is always a little strange running into people from your distant past. Peter and I went to high school together though we never really knew each other. Still it’s fun to see what people have gotten up to 15 years after you knew them.
After almost two months of sitting around with a dead battery, Dominique is revived and happily running. I still love the Mini, but I haven’t really been missing driving a much as I would have suspected. Still, I’m glad to find out that the fix was pretty simple and that I have a car again when I need one.
My view at the end of my cycling day.
The pelicans have been at Lake Overholser for a while now on their way south, but I finally got there at the right time of day for a close shot.
Dawn at Overholser is always really pretty so here are a couple of more runners-up from the same day:
