Today is hot in Western New York…there’s no two ways around it. Close to 90F / 32C and very humid. The weather forecast is for much of the same for the next week. I had off work today–which is unusual for a Saturday–and for that I am thankful. The last thing I want to doContinue reading “The Dog Days of Summer…”

Five Quotes (and a short video) from Seth Godin
“Here’s the truth you have to wrestle with: the reason that art (writing, engaging, leading, all of it) is valuable is precisely why I can’t tell you how to do it. If there were a map, there’d be no art, because art is the act of navigating without a map. Don’t you hate that? IContinue reading “Five Quotes (and a short video) from Seth Godin”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#331)
2 cans of dog food…sort of an emergency, I ran out. I know it’s not much to be carrying on a Mundo, but when you are owned by two very large dogs that are trapped in small dog’s bodies this is a very serious matter. Click here to see who’s eating it.

Five Bikes on a Bike
Five bikes on a bike…sounds like there’s a pun here somewhere. Anyhow, this is a photo from virtual friend and fellow Mundo rider James, in Yokohama, Japan. He operates a bike rental business there and uses his Mundo to transport bikes. He posted this pic on his blog and I thought I’d re-post it. I’veContinue reading “Five Bikes on a Bike”

A Salad Worth Fighting For
The above photo is the first (mostly) complete meal I’ve made from my front-yard garden this season. I say mostly complete because not everything in it was from the garden. Being early in the season (and the fact that I got a late start), the garden has a small amount of a lot of differentContinue reading “A Salad Worth Fighting For”

Home Built Cargo Bikes
As you can imagine I am always intrigued when I see other people being resourceful and carrying things on their bikes, especially when they are home-built. The above photos are of Ed and Eva. I’ve seen Ed riding around the neighborhood for a log time and today was riding past him as he waited outsideContinue reading “Home Built Cargo Bikes”

Yarn Bomb Explosion
I’ve posted on yarn bombing a couple times previously and how it has been appearing in Buffalo in recent months (click here and here to see those posts). I do not knit; I don’t know how. But I can only imagine the amount of time that goes into even the smallest “bomb.” I appreciate itContinue reading “Yarn Bomb Explosion”

In Brief…
Day’s Park Just a quick note to say that I will not be posting for a few days (probably 5 or 6). Thanks, as always, for those who continue to visit and take the time to comment. Until next week, peace.
