A presta valve

I wish this were taken outside after a ride, but since it has been raining for three days here I had to throw the bike up on the trainer to get a ride in.

U -- five more to go

For anyone who hasn't figured it out yet, I have been doing the alphabet in pictures.

I had today's idea well in advance BUT this morning before setting up my shot I looked to see what others had uploaded already on another 365 project site I upload to. And what did I find? Someone had taken nearly my exact shot; a pic of our ulu knife. So, back to the drawing board. I first came up with the idea of taking a photo of my uvula. I set it all up in front of the mirror, took about twenty pictures and then checked them out on the computer. I cropped out most of my face and had one that looked pretty good. But it also looked kind of gross. :-) So, I adjusted it to black and white. A little better, but still a bit gross. Back to the drawing board again, which for me this time, meant a trip to the basement. And I was not disappointed. There I found an old U bolt, a bit rusty, but it would do.

An old portable typewriter

Rummaging around in the basement, sorting things for a garage sale.

Anyone want to play a game?

Once again the basement provides me with my pic of the day and keeps the pattern going.

Spring is here. Wait. That isn't a robin.

It was fifty degrees at nine this morning so we opened the windows for some fresh air. It wasn't too long before a small pelican landed on our window sill and I had to take a picture of him.

And if you believe that I have a bridge to sell you.
