Out To Santee

YESTERDAY I nearly got caught up in this tree overhanging the road. Come on, people, trim those tree!

And I see some trees along Fletcher Parkway need a little manicuring. I shall have to pack my loppers along sometime for a bit of surreptitious tree trimming.

TODAY I biked out to Santee after work to secure a supply of cigarettes. On the way back, at J & N Redwood in El Cajon, I saw this giant hollow tree. Maybe they would let you go inside, if you ask nicely!

The place smells so of redwood, it recalls to mind the basket-weave redwood fence my dad put up. And that I had to paint with the awful red redwood paint paint. I had that stuff all OVER me!

Hey, don't you just hate it when bicyclists leave their tube fixin's litter strewn about?

Tomorrow I drive, so for the week, so far, we got 50.75 miles on the bike'o'meter.
