If you know this statue, you know two things. One is that the accompanying golden mare has been missing for several years; there’s no information about what happened. The other is that the golden foal is at the entering-Kentucky-northbound-on-I-75 rest area. Yes, we are northbound!

I took the coffee grounds out to the compost early this evening, and could hear music in four different directions. It seems the civic association is scoring big (they organize PorchFest).

It’s PorchFest in our neighborhood this weekend. When I went on a quick errand, I could see terlets and supplies and road blocks and stages and golf carts here and there. Rah! Wait, I don’t remember seeing garbage cans…must be they’re on the late delivery list.

I’m convinced that I met the Guru because of Ted’s choice to become a media guy. Of course, it wasn’t that simple! RIP, Ted.
I asked the Guru to create an image that portrays the intersection of his design work and Ted’s stations. There’re interesting visual tidbits.

I spotted The Moment when the dawn-pinks were raging, although I didn’t linger to discover if the sky would get brighter.

We got to watch the sign painters in action while waiting at a traffic light.

I cleaned up a forgotten corner of the yard and found this abandoned Nerf-toy entrapped in new spring greenery. I couldn’t tell what neighbor-property it came from to toss it back, so I guess I’ll donate it to the city next Garbage Day.

I woke up and listened to…quiet. I thought: Sunday. Then, I thought: it’s even quiet for a Sunday. Then, I remembered: marathon. Nearby, and not on our street, but near enough to change traffic patterns, especially diverting through traffic. Hence: unusual quiet from lack of vehicles.

I don’t know why, but the neighbor’s fancy ride, which is usually only parked in his garage, was out in the elephants.
