The weather is so nice that I decided to commute to work today. First commute in quite some time. I had almost forgotten how pleasant it is it ride into work early before traffic ruins everything. I left at 5:30 and arrived around 6:10AM.

Another from the A&S; it's at an airport, so there are always planes approaching the runways. This is from a visual corridor that frames the Ascent sculpture outside the entrance -

Very nice. Way better than the one I took from the same spot. Almost as important, did you get a pic of the steps the priest fell down in the Exorcist?

I could fall down those easily. No problem.

I watch it on an iPad app which has no Flash but I've watched it on other platforms, too. I'll have to check that out.

Excellent!

Mallorca is great. If you go, you HAVE to take a bike.

Just down to Belleplain State Forest in Woodbine, NJ. (French Creek and Cape Henlopen are booked solid.) Will probably take a day ride to the Cape May County Zoo on Saturday. Sunday I will ride into Ocean City for breakfast and then continue up the coast to A.C. to catch the train home. Will definitely say hello to Lucy.

I could conceivably watch it on my phone, but they won't let me download the app because I'm in Mexico. I'll download said app when NOB, but whether or not it will then work here remains to be seen. I thought I'd try IE or Safari.

What time/date where you there? It's possible that is literally my flight from Tokyo, I was on a United 777-200 exactly like that.

Granted, there are hundreds of them, but that'd be a random "Addiction Meetup".

Dan333SP 04-10-17 07:25 AM

Opinion please- Facebook has "suggested friends" listed on your news feed based on mutual friends and interests.

Virtually all of mine feature people in lycra and/or on bikes. Does that mean I'm a serious cyclist? Or that my social circles are seriously underdeveloped?

It was on Wednesday. You didn't get back 'til Thurs or Friday, right? We left early Friday morning and did two 700 mile days - oof.

LAJ 04-10-17 07:30 AM

Awesome pictures, [MENTION=185471]WhyFi[/MENTION]

WhyFi 04-10-17 07:30 AM

Gracias!

seedsbelize 04-10-17 07:31 AM

I don't do lycra. Never been much of a uniform kinda guy. Nor much of a conformist in general.

Yea, Thursday in the early afternoon. Had to get my car from a remote lot and then drive in rush hour DC traffic back to Richmond. Took 3 hours on top of 22 sleepless hours of travel prior to that. No bueno.

I was wondering how many replies it'd take before someone posted this. Kudos :thumb:

700 miles in the car in one day? I don't think I've ever done more than 400 tops.
