Not the big wreck of the day-but big news for those involved. I guess that is the mantra for us small town newspaper folks.

Thank goodness for window light- it makes a quick portrait easy as pie.

And this is the inside of a local architect’s office-one I always stare through the window when i walk by on court street.

I want the furniture in the office for my house. But at least now I know that the stuff comes from Ikea and not the budget killing Design Within Reach-(what a joke)

I saw Dave out of the corner of my eye at an event over at Gadsden State. Just playing a little camera tag

actually i was 20th at the Live to Ride Road Race at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham. This was my first real road race-50 some guys on a curvy course. I just tried to stay out of trouble. I went out front once just to try and pick up the pace-but got caught. I made up a lot of spots on the hills but then the entire group would slow down and I would squeezed back again. I barely stayed out of a wreck, and it was rather nerve wracking to ride in a group that big-with people not holding lines. But I survived and finished with a slightly strung out main group-7 seconds behind the leader.

then i went on a ride with Scot and Athena and got killed-oh well-just digging around in the pain cave.

Just a frame from one of many “To Kill a Mockingbird” panel discussions as part of the Gadsden Reads ( Or as many refer to the novel “How To Kill a Mockingbird” I think it would be a lovely field guide for all of those budding songbird hunters.) I die a little inside each time I hear it.
