I haven’t seen one of these in a long time:
In fact, out of the corner of my eye, while we were riding our bikes through some of the local lowlands, I saw that today and thought it was real. This guy needs help!
That guy is actually a cool decoration.
And I would have stayed around there all day, it was nice and cool in the shade, but there are boxes to unpack. And soup to eat. Here’s the ceiling fan in my spoon in my soup:
We’re at my folks. We’ll be here for a few days. Here are some pictures from the afternoon’s four-hour drive.
Allie, The Black Cat, likes Whataburger:

We went out riding with one of her graduate students. I suppose he’s a former grad student now, having graduated and all that. He’s from Florida and he was not prepared for anything where his bike, which he’s dusting off and riding again after a good long while, pointed up. And we don’t have real hills here. But we had fun! And that’s the purpose of the bike. One of the points. I’m presently using it for at least three of its modern purposes.

And that marks 80 miles for the week so far.
This guy knows how to pick a motorcycle helmet.
At James Brothers, our local bike shop. This beautiful machine is a Felt AR3. List price is $3499.
And this exquisite monster is a Felt IA time trial bike. If you guys want to chip in and buy me a new bike this one lists at $4999.99.
Baseball! And a cell phone shot. You can actually see the baseball.
Not bad at all.
