1/29/21 – Mercedes Benz (more points for select colors)

My red one is in storage, I don’t want to start the discussion about getting a bike into an old SL, so here’s a new red one.

A tribute to Donald Trumbull, really? Maybe not.

1/27 – tunnel

The dark, intimate, tunnel that brings folks from North Shore Drive to Browns Chapel park. Magic in Reston.

Whoa. That is deep!
The weather certainly could cloud a lot of things today! I was hoping for a really easy “Green Turtle” across the street, but they spell it Greene!! Luckily, I found something else “great” that was across the street.
And, these anagrams are tricky for me. I try to think of a few words that will work, and hope I see something along the way. Once in a while, I see a word, and it takes my a bit of time to figure out if it works. This time was a bit easier as I remembered that the only vowels were two e’s and and a (and sometimes y).

Anagram generator and try and remember a few good ones. I was assigned eyewear.

No forgiving necessary, just reminded me of a few things:
-blind trust should be questioned,
-sometimes validation is necessary,
-spelling is not a frivolous skill, and
-weather can cloud reality.

1/26/21 -Wayne Gretzky

Did my terrible, no good, bad weather mega-sleaze ride to discover an incorrect word was discovered, so back on the bike. Hopefully two greens are better than one.

1/25/21 – Bubbles & bubble wrap

I went to the Mecca of packing, the epicenter of all things bubbly, the center of commerce in Reston: UPS. While not artistically my best, the grandness of the submission should count for something.

1/23/21 – Pie

I always assumed 3/14 was National Pie Day, but I was off by one letter. That’s Pi Day, but in 1976, a school teacher in Boulder, CO declared his birthday on January 23 to be Pie day, and the rest is history.

On your ride, seek and photograph pie, then if you’d like, share with the rest of us where you can get this deliciousness

Happy hunting!

Because I’m taking this very seriously We went to Tysons II that galleria where once I dined in dark boothes with strangers, but today was a quick carry out and yes, I ate the whole Key Lime pie! Riding buddy Kbikeva said she could smell the lime through the mask. Now there is good pie!

So look closely for Reagan!

1/19/21 – Beetle

On January 19, 1978, the last Volkswagen Beetle made in Germany left their factory in Emden. Find a beetle on your bike ride and post the pic of it here.

Happy hunting!

1/19/21 – Beetle

The trifecta: my first car was a 1966 Beetle, my favorite color is red, and hunting for new ways to get places is always a delight.[ATTACH=CONFIG]23017[/ATTACH]

1/18/2021 BIPOC Public Art

Contrabands and Freeman’s cemetery sculpture: The Path of Stones and Roses https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrabands_and_Freedmen_Cemetery#/media/File%3AContrabands_and_Freedmen_Cemetery_Memorial.jpg by Mario Chiodo, Italian, but the memorial was designed by African American Alexandria resident CJ Howard, prof @ Catholic Univ. Now I’m at a quandary which picture. You’ll just have to wait for it.
