True Story

Volumes 2 & 3

Volume 2:

I accidentally bumped this cabinet and this framed picture fell and the glass in the frame broke. Mindy Grossberg asked if I’d get new glass this weekend and I said, “Sure” then headed out to the garage for my bike.

Our garage opens on University Boulevard and it’s not uncommon for trash to litter our driveway for a couple days before we notice it. We can’t see it from the house and don’t exit that way often.

So I open the garage door and notice some food scraps and other trash. I start to pick it up and notice a frame. There’s no picture in the frame but there is a piece of unbroken glass in it.

Guess what? It fit.

Volume 3:

Last night bopping around town I ended up in Nob Hill after dark with my bike. I had a headlamp, but it wasn’t very bright. A pedestrian at an intersection yelled, “You should get a bike light.”

This morning I’m walking in the Bosque on one of the many dirt trails when I come across a bike light.

It works.
