I saw this on my ride home. I watched it happen and took this while on the phone with 911 (the cop had just pulled up). The Tiburon and semi were turning. The Tiburon's driver ran into the curb and stopped. Then, the semi bumped it. Doesn't look like much harm to the Tibby other than the rear suspension being trashed.
The spreadsheet I use to track commutes (mostly for the purposes of getting transit reimbursement) lends itself to a lovely pie chart like this one. FWIW, April 11 was the tipping point from bus back onto the bike.
Back to work.
Blehhh.
Stopped by the library on the way in.
Also the post office.
Listened to R.E.M.'s Green album.
A fresh listen after several years had me enjoying this gap between their past and their future.
Drank Cinnamon Stick Coffee....it was gone way to quick.
Squinted most of the drive....light sensitivity is a @%&*@!.
Thanks Allergies!
After a day raiding the bins and harassing the citizens in Town a small squadron of Gulls head back to the cliffs for the night.
Hand-held & filter-free & putting my faith in AF Servo in a Pembrokeshire back-garden.
Day 121 of 2015. I had a meeting with Jodie in Oakland this afternoon. Jodie texted earlier saying that BART might be challenging because of the protests and suggested that I take the ferry.
There was not much arm twisting involved. Today was beautiful, and the view from the Bay was even more striking thanks to the thick fog over much of San Francisco and the western side of the Bay.
Bay Area commuting, my friends. Life here does not suck.
I have a long commute, but unlike many people it's rarely ever long because of the travel. Instead, I drive an hour to Deer Valley Resort and an hour back driving 75 miles an hour. Three mountain passes and beautiful Utah views keep me entertained (with the help of some good podcasts), and every day I can appreciate the beauty of the Wasatch.

More suburban wildlife encounters. Just managed to snap a picture of this bobcat as it sauntered across the lawn and driveway of this house in the middle of a Richardson, TX neighborhood. Didn't have time but to quickly grab the digital and push the zoom before it was through the hedge. So it was a little blurry.
This map represents my daily commute to and from work, plus a few other destinations as well.
The data was recorded with my GPS unit, then loaded into Google Earth. Each track is set to a 15% opacity, and where they overlap, it gets darker. Therefore, the darkest parts of the path represent areas I travel through frequently, while fainter areas represent rarely-travelled paths.
The blue line going up off the top of the map goes to my house, and the one going down off the bottom goes to my work. (what, you didn't think I'd actually tell you where I live and work, did you?)
Do not be fooled by the sunny summer satellite imagery! These commutes all occurred within the last 2 weeks!
