wild fires

Took this picture from the car on the drive home from OBX.  There were wild fires raging in NC and southern VA, which made everything very hazy.

"like butta"

%$#@*&^!!!!!!!

This pic should come with a sound effect:  BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!

This is my morning commute.  Mr. Truck there decided he was sick of waiting to make a left turn across traffic, so he would just butt his way in and stay stuck there for 10 minutes or so blocking traffic.  

road trip

Nashville to Asheville 2008:  The first day of our 10 day road trip from DC to Nashville, TN to Asheville, NC and back.  Lots of driving.

Lucky random shot out the car window while driving back from a pointless doctor's appointment in Baltimore. But - my stitches are out!

another trip to baltimore, another appointment with a surgeon

anything but pleasant

Remember the 3 1/2" needle in my hip joint? I went to Sinai Hospital in Baltimore today and got the 3 1/2" needle again - in BOTH hips! (But afterwards we stopped for ice cream-which makes everything better.)

Driving up to NJ, I encountered plumes of black smoke and orange fireballs jumping above the treeline. Turns out a Sunoco tank farm caught on fire when it was struck by lightning.
