I'm alive, don't worry. I'll be quiet over the next few days as am doing some mentoring. #

Speed trap coming into Greenpoint on the flyover. #

Frek, has anyone seen the hieroglyphics they have painted on the roads going into the Greenpoint circle? For Ra's sake, what do they mean? #

Started my day with coffee at &Union, good coffee and most enjoyable sitting in the shade outside watching town wake up. #
