Happy Saturday Earthlings! Although, if you are like me, all days are the same. Some days are not the day I thought it was. Sometimes, I'm off by a week, but have the day right. It's all good, the cell phone is always useful for orienting a person in their space time continuum.
It's a glorious fall season here. This time last year, days were in the mid-50s and riding was cold. We're still in the 70's and the 30 day forecast shows this trend persisting. I'll take it, it's really wonderful. Here are different pictures of the ride to the lake. This is from Deep Creek. The water was still, and it was a beautiful day.
The always dangerous Canadian Geese. We don't walk on the grass anymore, there are too many geese bombs.
Look at the left side of the milfoil. It's turning greenish, I think the blooming season is coming to an end. I was looking at photos of this part of the water last year, and it didn't bloom, that's kind of odd. The vegetation was there, just no yellow.
Is this not one of the cutest vehicles you've ever seen? It's a Honda Street. They've quit making them due to more stringent safety rules in Japan, but there are a few in the US. The guy who owns it just loves it, the motor is about the size of a motorcycle engine, and it gets about 40 mpg. The rear seat folds down flat, and it will hold two dogs comfortably.
Remember in 2014 when Putin invaded Crimea and annexed it to Russia, and then built a bridge so people could get back and forth easily, since they were now all Russians? Well that bridge is toast. The upper part is a rail bridge. The lower part is for vehicle traffic. This puts a large dent in Russia's supply lines to Ukraine. If the general public has learned nothing else from this war, it's the importance of supply lines and logistics.
Unfortunately, part of the vehicle bridge survives, for now.
Here is the bridge now. That's a train burning on the rail line, as well as the concrete.
If you would like to view video from just before the bridge blew up, CLICK HERE. It's pretty impressive.
Other than this, I have nothing important to report.
A wonderful big badda boom, a pity that Putin was not driving on the bridge that day.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful countryside there in Spo-cain...
I understand no one has taken responsibility for the bombing (yet). Lots of theories (mostly conspiracy) but no answers. I'm with Linda Sue.
ReplyDeleteI pray that this fucking war ends sooner rather than later. I spit on putin.
ReplyDeletePutin keeps getting his ass kicked by Ukraine, Russian men fleeing the country, soldiers throwing down their weapons and fleeing. Had Trump been reelected he'd have handed over Ukraine on a gold platter. I hope it ends soon but Putin will never give in though someone told me there's been 2 attempts on his life.
ReplyDeleteWe're finally having weather cool enough to actually do physical work outside.
Nice to know others have similar space time continuum problems.
