For All Those Budding Red Barons

I've never met Thomas Herrington, but he seems to have a cool sense of humour. I found his bike trailer on Instructables; I want one, even tho' I don't have kids. You can find the instructions and more cool pictures here. http://www.instructables.com/id/Red-Baron-Childs-Bicycle-Trailer/

It Is Like a Stable

The Geek has been spending much time in the garage working on doors for the kitchen cabinets. In the process, she has created a great deal of sawdust. She had no inclination to sweep up the dust because it provideds traction on the mini skating rink the garage floor has become. Eselin is standing on a mini mountain since I pried her out of the ice. I'll wait to dust her off until I'm ready to go somewhere. We'll have to deal with the sawdust slurry at at later date.

It Has Been A Long Winter

While the back lanes vary from water-filled potholes to
downright impassable for two wheeled vehicles,
the streets themselves are largely clear.
All these details are moot since Eselin is frozen in the huge puddle on the floor in the garage.Soon!

Left Behind

These bikes have been sitting at the University for while. The green one even longer than the red.
Eselin and Rabbit have not left the garage at all since the snow came, but at least they're dry. I'm waiting for motivation, or spring, which ever comes first.
