A bicyclist was run over and and killed in front of our favorite Mexican food place. The driver took off. They shut down the whole street. To clean the blood.
This is normalized in the USA. it didn’t even make the fucking news. I’m shaking with anger

Biking
My son the downhill mountain biker has a friend who also loves cross country biking. The funny part is that she's older than I am, and a surgeon. Apparently, whenever she's not in surgery or sleeping, she's biking. This past weekend they both worked quite a while building an offshoot of one of his downhill trails that runs across the slope of the mountain instead of straight down it. It's a lovely trail, he took me on a preview walk last evening.
Yet another surprise that has me looking slightly perplexed and muttering, "ok, I guess that might as well happen." I think I will stick to horses. Bikes just never really appealed to me. I'd have to live somewhere really flat to appreciate a bike ride!
Unlike THIS maniac. Dearly beloved, voted "most likely to drive me to drinking."

It's not yet noon, and this is already a fantastic day.
On Thursday I pedaled my bicycle downtown to work. When I bike I leave my regular wallet, with its many cards, at home. Instead I put cash, a Visa card and my driver license in a thin plastic case normally used for business cards. It fits my pocket better. If I lose it I don't have as many things to replace.
Somewhere in Minneapolis, on a busy road (with bike lanes) my wallet fell out of my pocket. I had recently been to an ATM, so there was over $100 in there. I felt awful. As soon as I noticed I shut off the Visa via a phone app.
I had my name and phone number on the case. You never know, there can be nice people out there. Using my label maker also makes me happy.
Early this morning, while at the dog park, my phone rang. A guy found my little wallet while he was bicycling and wanted to get it back to me. Quickly I left the park to meet him at a farmers market in Richfield, along the route I pedaled to work on Thursday.
We met up. He handed me the wallet. Everything was there!
I tried to give him some cash. "At least let me pay for your lunch today," I suggested. He refused the offer. He commented that the label with my name and phone number was a fantastic idea. He planned to do the same thing. Had my label maker been in my truck I would have insisted he take it.
When I got home I saw my neighbor spreading black dirt and grass seed in his yard. I asked where he filled his trailer full of dirt. He told me there's a composting facility a few miles from our houses that sells topsoil. It's inexpensive, he added, and they fill truck and trailers for you so you don't need to load it yourself.
Damn! Each year I usually buy ten or so bags of black dirt from a home improvement store. I use the dirt to fill holes one of the dogs dug or various low spots in the yard. Those bags cost $3 to 4 each.
The half yard of soil (it nearly filled my pickup truck bed) was $13. Holy cow, how had I not known about this place all these years?
I'll add some grass seed to the soil and spread it around the yard later today. For now I think I'll treat myself to a nice lunch then take a nap.
