jhetleyTwo wounded vehicles out near the bog, with transporter vultures circling around for the carrion. Location was right at the turn-off for the city forest, good visibility in both directions, so either somebody wasn't looking or somebody didn't give a damn. Or both...
World warmed up and the wind died down a bit, so I got out on the bike after lunch. Another lovely fall day, with still more "foliage" to view -- more maples turning, color in the oaks, blazing red from sumac.
Minor glitch on the return, as the highway department had set up shop between my going forth and my coming in, with a gouge carved in the pavement at the top of a hill and traffic backed up for half a mile. Don't get me wrong -- I approve of road repairs, I think they're great, that spot had a utility trench across the road that had compacted into a hazard and all. But these things are supposed to happen when I am not using that pavement. Magic.
