Will be there, bike(s) or no bike(s)… (Both bikes should be functional by then… How weird to get to say the word “both”!

And rumor has it that may or may not be CBGAnimal’s birthday.

I hear the cool kids can be spotted at Columbia Island on Thursday nights.

Sounds like a winner! On my calendar!
It’s also Dark Star Line-up Day! (9:32 AM)

I was going to make a Crosby, Stills, and Nash song reference to their “Dark Star,” but the Dark Star Park alignment looks really cool.

Dark star I see you in the morning
Dark star a’ sleeping next to me
Dark star let the memory of the evening
Be the first thing that you think of
When you open up your smile and see me dark star

You didn’t forget about happy hour this Thursday, did you? Weather looks to be a bit cooler. Currently a 40ish percent chance of rain but the event is still on. Komorebi *might* bring her mom. Prepare all of your questions about what Komorebi was like growing up.

I’ll be out of town for this one, but I will be at Island Time tonight. Never been before, seems like my kinda jam.

I heard today at the Dark Star line-up from someone who know Nancy Holt and she said Dark Star refers to the Jerry Garcia instrumental by the same name.

Great way to spend the evening tonight…! And the clouds, after the brief showers, were stunning on the dusk ride home!
