Dasgeh – THANK YOU for the ‘maters. Were delivered by the Mr. Timothy and much appreciated! (I was unawares of the “stop by” offer so I ended at FB and then rolled home…)

You’re welcome. So Tim kept the eggplants to himself? Interesting…

Turn left onto 20th St N (the first street after Lee) and look for the house that reminds you of that song “one of these things is not like the other”.

McMansion in a block of bungaloes? For shame, dasgeh.

Nope. Ride by. You’ll understand.

I’m finally going to make that eggplant soup! (Name that Curious George episode…)

According to street view, it’s unique in that they don’t have indoor plumbing!

Sorry, we roll with Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood in my household.

(Although I did download a couple Curious George episodes for long car rides)

Pretty much the opposite of that.

Yea, lets hear it for human sized housing. The houses on my street are being consumed one by one by apartment buildings that oddly each contain only one family rather than the 10 or so they could hold. One is 12,000 sf, has 6 AC units and 4 humans. Mom drives a Prius (to offset the carbon I guess).

Had a nice anti missed connection on then ride home from TNR. Seems my nice Blackburn rechargeable blinky and I parted ways while I was getting the “Magic Fingers” treatment on the section of road that has been milled. A guy in a car saw it fall off and took the time and effort to get out, pick it up, chase me down and honk just as I got to the custis. Big thanks!

I was panicked last night, thought I lost my favorite Knog Blinder rear light there as well, but I just forgot to put it on my seatpost in the morning. Crisis averted. I did lose a bottle on the way down Military and stopped to pick it up. That made me lots of new friends.

It looks like I’ll actually be riding TNR tonight. See y’all out there. I likely won’t linger too much after. I’ve got stuff to get done.

Love,

Dirt
