Gravity is getting the better of this gate.

The football season opened today with a total mismatch, but the visitors sure seemed happy to be here and out on campus the faithful were prepared.

By the end of the first half, it was 38-0, though, and the crowds thinned rapidly.

Never noticed this pattern on the grills of Acuras before.

Lief is creeping up on the concrete and steel bridge that leads to my parking lot.

Not sure what was happening, but today was one of the longest commutes home I’ve had. No one was in a rush and no one was doing anything really dumb. The summer heat has maybe beat everyone down a little more than usual.
