Participant3/9/25 – GREED
Today I was so GREEDy for Jenn’s company that I rode down to Shirlington to ride her home from a play 😁🤷🏻
This is really a picture of her that I’m photobombing. Cuz I brought myself from home 😁🤷🏻

Participant3/9/25 GREED
Whenever I see a Tesla, it reminds me of Elon Musk’s GREED for money and power

Participant3/9/25 Greed: Banks are some of the greediest institutions around; notorious for stiffing us on interest and pocketing huge salaries. I thought of Capital One or Wells Fargo, but was struck by the golden dome of the Farmer and Mechanical Bank in Georgetown, symbolizing greed when all we need is somewhere safe to manage our money. I could also get into the greed of the big Farming lobby and their endless subsidies – another reason for our whopping national deficit….

In SPITE of the lack of soil, endless car exhaust, and both road and sidewalk salt, this vine is thriving.

Participant3/10/25 -SPITE
Today was Lynn Salvo’s first ride in 2.5 months so she kept warning me & Mary that she’d be slow. But in SPITE of our pace differences we all rode together just fine
Cuz sometimes it’s more about the company than about the pace 😃🤩💕😁🤷🏻
