I hope the surgery went well Tom and you get back on the bike soon.

Thanks, and I'm still not supposed to ride but I did get some walking in and I'm counting the finds.

Trump played golf today.

So I run, rather than bike. And while I occasionally rip the power cords out of “bulk trash” on the roadside - I’ve started targeting a different quarry.

I’m picking up littered scratch offs lottery tickets (which I’ve always done - because I figure if they’re dumb enough to toss it out the window, they’re dumb enough to miss it), but NOW, I’m entering them in the “second chance” drawing. And I’m gonna win something. Someday.

On the road again!

Been getting hammered with OT at work for end of year projects. Still got some golf balls.
They might make great stocking stuffers, but I don't want to give them up.
