Cycled across a bridge across a gorge near Hastings, Minnesota. Stopped to view a waterfall, an abandoned mill, and tinges of Fall colors.
Converging Lines
Cycled past converging lines.
Cheaper, Better
Replaced our expensive-to-maintain 2003 BMW 3 Series with a cheaper, better car: a 2017 Honda Fit. Our 1996 Honda Civic still runs great.
Life’s Good
Attacked my favorite cake with a knife. Marzipan, sponge, raspberry jam, whipped cream, almond flakes: life’s good.
Little Red Tricycle
Walked around three lakes with a friend. The little red tricycle was parked beside the trail, no child in sight.
Princess Kay of the Milky Way
Cycled to the State Fair where we watched a Princess Kay of the Milky Way contestant being sculpted in butter in a refrigerated booth.
An Empty Furnace Room
Our furnace room has never looked lovelier.

Bought a high visibility bicycle helmet. I experienced some anxiety when a flock of geese flew low overhead.
