The chunk of metal in question that caused the flat last Thurday the 23rd.














Also on the 23rd, I seem to have mistaken a Morris Minor Woody for a pickup!! And as for the OTHER Morris Minor, it seems to be a Mini... I think there is a Renault Daphine in the drivway also, but there is a big tree in the way.









I got the floor pump thing soldered, with only two blisters, and everything works fine so far! Hold your collectives breaths!







A couple a poor pictures showing the bikepath/river renovations in Santee. Looks to be quite a project. The river bed is still full of crud, however.

















I saw these two forlorn-looking fancy shoes along the side of the road near the start of the Padre Dam bikepath place. I wonder how they got there?












I am not going to mention the hooded skateboarder at Lake Murray that nearly ran into me (he was on foot) and giggle when I said "Excuse me", then later almost whacked me in the face with his fishing pole. I said a curse word at him regarding his hood and lack of vision because of.

I REALLY should stop riding at the lake, it is really not a safe place to bicycle at any pace. I know better, and in fact the Dam Ride was supposed to elimanate much of the lake route I used to do.

I love all the pictures!!! What a narly piece of metal! Don't forget to take a pic of the finished floor pump. I should email you the picture of the hole in our family room ceiling due to a leak. Happened on Monday. Giovanni the plumber thought it was the toilet so we happily replaced it bz we hated it in the first place. John installed it today and after the first flush, still leaked. Karl the plumber is coming on Tuesday. We've used him before and trust him so we'll see what he says. Sigh. All we see are dollar signs.
