My normal commute route follows eastern ave from delta to Baines where I cut over into friendship park. Its a nice quite interlude between eastern ave traffic and downtown traffic. This morning while gliding through the park, I heard voices coming from the river. At first I thought it might just be an echo from [ READ MORE ]
I’ve decided to do a series of photos of the homes, both old and new, on eastern ave. This will be a subset of my “Snapshots from the bike” series. Eastern ave is undergoing massive re-development right now. There are half million dollar homes and condos being built along side very dilapidated multi-family buildings. Many [ READ MORE ]

So yesterday, I biked to work, then to our office for an interview. After the interview I left, made my way through all the Reds traffic and through friendship park.

I have to admit, fog scares me a little when biking, but this morning most of it had dissipated by the time I hit the road. Here’s a fun shot of the river with some fog hovering over the surface: Powered by ScribeFire. [ READ MORE ]
Here’s the school on stilts, on Kellogg. This school actually sits on the floodplain and was built on stilts to prevent flooding. Snapped this one on my way home today. After I got home, Meg and I hit the trail for another 10 miles, bringing my total for the day to 26. Powered by ScribeFire. [ READ MORE ]
