Spring, Day Two *
June 8, 2011
The, uh, looking down at feet and taking a picture theme continues, it would seem. A few things to note:
1. Going fast; note the pavement’s a blur.
2. Wearing Havaianas, the official flip flop of Brazil, probably the only country in the world that actually has an official flip flop. Really. Look it up.
3. Calf looks huge, which for me, a person with calf envy, is pretty exciting.
4. Wearing shorts for the second straight day. Unprecedented in the year 2011.
5. My bike is very spiffy and clean. Not always the case.
6. Scraping the bottom of the barrel, yet again, for something to write today. My excuse: I’ve been writing all day about the events of April 6. Much less frivolous fare. Slowly but surely slogging through the recent Nepal trip.
7. Slogging = slow blogging. A term I may have just coined.
* This will get significantly less noteworthy when/if we settle into prevailing seasonal weather patterns. For now though, wow, what a nice day.

I took pictures on my bike on the last bike ride I ever took, in 2003. No problem with the picture but later on in the ride, I fell. Twice. Wiped out my knee. No more biking for me. I was just glad that I didn’t fall while doing something stupid, like taking a picture of myself on the bike!

Have you ever considered one of those ever-stable 3-wheelers?
