Speaking of which, time for my fake group ride. Sigh
That said, it's still fake and I would like prefer a solo ride (if weather is dry) to a fake group ride. The weather this morning was wet so the online group ride was Plan B. |

And their other faulty habit is that they mostly fly in a straight line as opposed to quick, evasive maneuvers. Not good.
Crows are friendly. |

Good news! Delta has extended its change fee waiver for flights through the end of September. Previously, it only applied to flights through May. Now I can push back my planned June Montana/Idaho tour.

With all the planes blocking the runway, I guess there's no where left to land.

There is a large square in center city Philadelphia with lots of large trees. Red tails would hunt pigeons, squirrels and rats there in the fall, when the leaves fell. You could usually tell one was around when the pigeons would get spooked and start flocking like a school of fish being chased. Saw one eating a rat once.

Speaking of Canada and aeroplanes, looks like passengers on flights involving Canada must wear facemasks soon...

I don't have a mask.

On a serious note, I have a few 26" tubes that i have no need for. I bet that I could cut them for ear pieces and use some cloth and a YT video to DIY. |

Agree. It makes daughter #2 college choice even more complicated. Why cough up a ton of $$$ to got school at USC if they are going to be remote anyway??
Any chance you can use that to spin it with her? Two years closer to home and then transfer to USC when things are hopefully back to normal and she can get that full experience? |

Even idiot Texas isn't opening schools for the rest of the academic year; next fall is in question. No one should be thinking about this academic year.

So our drip coffee maker pot/carafe cracked somehow and now leaks a little. It is a proprietary size to fit in the unit and also push up the spring so the coffee drips down. I may have to disable that spring for the time being. I scoured ScamBay and did see a used replacement for like $25 (half the price is shipping), no way.
Why can’t they just use a universal size pot? Sigh. |

50+º, sunny, and 15-25 mph winds. I never did get my trike out earlier this week so I'm thinking today is the day for a reellaaxxiinngg stroll type ride.
