Sun & Dung II

My ride was excellent.  The weather was perfect; my jacket was open a few buttons in front, and the wind whistling in was just cooling enough to keep me perspiration-free without moving me down to cold.  Visibility was 100%.  Traffic was moderate, so even on the main arteries I took to get from Riding Area A to Riding Area B didn't cause any stop-and-go.

Sun & Dung


This weekend the sun is absolutely streaming down, and the area looks incredibly gorgeous. From time to time you get a spectacular waft of hot cow dung smell from farms in the area, which while nasty is also a healthy indicator of seasons, agriculture, etc. I'm going to be riding motorcycle later this afternoon, and you could hardly find a better day for it!

"50 Mission Cap" by the Tragically Hip:  unforgettable song.  Unforgettable Canadiana.

Condo Content

Sitting at a friend's place, in the car, waiting.  I'm impressed by the landscaping of his condo complex.  It backs onto a large tract of woods, giving it a really unspoiled feel.  In the complex the gardens and trees are nicely kept, with pleasing walkways and lighting accents, cedar picket fences, khaki metal railings, and so on.

Led Zeppelin

Apropos of nothing, Led Zeppelin's song "The Ocean" continues to rock the house.  That is all.

Happy May 5th Everyone!

From wikipedia:

Cinco de Mayo (Spanish for "fifth of May") is a holiday that commemorates the Mexican army's unlikely victory over French forces at theBattle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, under the leadership of Mexican General Ignacio Zaragoza SeguĂ­n.[1][2] While not an "obligatory federal holiday" in Mexico, it is celebrated primarily in the state of Puebla, and in the United States.[3][4]

Cinco de Mayo is not "an obligatory federal holiday" in Mexico, but rather a holiday that can be observed voluntarily.[5][6] While Cinco de Mayo has limited significance nationwide in Mexico, the date is observed in the United States (also voluntarily) and other locations around the world as a celebration of Mexican heritage and pride.[7] Cinco de Mayo is not Mexico's Independence Day,[8] which actually is September 16,[9] the most important national patriotic holiday in Mexico.[10]
