A Resumption Of My Fulmination

The crime wave ended here. Three young women from the Palm Beach area did a smash and grab that set off an alarm. A nearby VB cop responded, and that, after a brief chase, was that. Stolen car, too. 

Pizza is good. Guy makes his own stuff. You can see him tossing the pizza in back. And his oven is hot enough.

Streaming Music from Munich

As Christmas music becomes unavoidable, I think about a few favorites that I'll play from my collection. And I listen for little bits and snippets of good from the mess that is coming across from many of the usual sources. This morning some antiphonal music performed, recorded, and streamed from Germany. Bayern Klassik the wire to the internet world web thing.

An added bonus to listening to this stream is that it's German language, so I can't understand a word of the news broadcasts. There is some part of me, though, that wants to believe that the news is not so piled with garbage laden tales of the insignificant and breathless stories of scientific breakthrough, later turning out to be untrue, reported by journalists who are clueless.

Thursday the 12th turning out to be a morning of low clouds and the possibility of rain. I'm sort of in the mood to mountain-bike explore. And sort of not. The wind direction is wrong for airplane watching. Which would otherwise be good because VRB is probably IFR. I enjoy seeing airplanes emerge from overcast lined up with the runway; that's some technology you got there in that airplane. You betcha.

A sunnier day in southwest Vero, an area that often turns up in police and sheriff reports.

Dirt Road Backroad And Other Adventures

Man. Has it been that long. I guess time to put up some panorama views. Taking the mountain bike out to places where a turn here and a turn there gets almost away from the sound of motor vehicles.

Sand Roads And The Back Way To Fort Pierce

Time to get the black bike rolling on some back roads. There's a lot to explore, and it comes with a bonus: very few motor vehicles. The wail of packs of cars does get old. So far no country dogs.

There Was No Fried Chicken In Attica

Wheelers Fried Chicken is gone. Replaced by a feeding trough. Family buffet. I didn't even bother.

Other pics from a few rides. Most to the south and west of Lafayette.

I was along the river bottom in Spring and then again in Fall. Soybeans.

Downtown Attica on a cloudy day. Attica is another river town. Unlike Lafayette, Attica didn't grow much larger. And unlike Lafayette, Attica didn't knock most of the old buildings down.
