Stolen summer

Is anyone else disappointed with the weather this summer?  We had a couple weeks of hot and sweatiness, and then it seems like Autumn took hold as soon as August hit.  The wimpy tan I’ve acquired is already starting to fade.  With the threat of global warming, I was at least expecting nice, intense summers as a “plus”.  Come on!  Where’s our silver lining??

OCD van, July update



Just thought I'd share a glimpse of the local OCD van with you all, to see how this monstrousity has been morphing. Most obvious is the cage, which is now gone. It's actually been dismantled and put inside the van. You'll notice it's been replaced by a multitude of boxes, a cooler and some bikes. Also note the flattish tire at the back.

One morning last week, I was walking by and noticed it was so packed that even the drivers seat had a pile on it that reached nearly to the roof.

The weirdest part of all this, as Bry pointed out, is that we never see the owner making any of these changes. It just mysteriously seems to happen overnight when there are no witnesses.
