This is Zephyr. He is a professionally trained bed bug detector. When he recognizes the scent of live bed bugs, he gives an alert by sitting and smiling exuberantly at his handler. We're pretty sure no one has ever been more excited to find bed bugs in their life. 13/10 (TT: emmercrew)

"Purple Sky*"
Oct 2020

*I happened to wake up before sunrise that morning and notice the pink/purple colors dominating everything else. I've never seen the sky like this before or afterwards.

Day 2 – 30-Day Winter Cycling Challenge (Anniversary) 🚲❄️
I’m re-sharing this series because it opened the door to conversations, encouragement of new friends from around the globe—each riding their own version of winter. New here? Welcome. Rode along last year? Thanks for pedaling back with me.

I want to share this with you because this is one of the most beautiful things I’ve seen: this is Carol of The Bells - we call it Shchedryk - performed by Ukrainian military and a veteran in Kyiv main railway station . But I must warn you: it will break your heart. And then, it will heal it again.

It's been 4 months *to the day* since Tropical Storm #Chantal damaged a key non-car transportation corridor in #ChapelHillNC.
Yesterday, temporary repairs on #BolinCreekTrail were finished and it's open for business!!! WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO

“I gave him a barley sugar sweet, which I had in my pocket, and he went away, licking it. I went off and spoke to a Médecins Sans Frontières doctor, and I felt someone take hold of my hand. It was the boy. It made me feel so bloody guilty.”

The rape and killing of a young woman in Madison County first captivated me as a Duke University student a half century ago. Investigators botched the case, but after decades of research and a recent prison interview, I know who did it.

When Anthonhy Burns was kidnapped in Boston in 1854 under the auspices of the Fugitive Slave Act, thousands of ordinary white and Black Bostonians responded with outrage like this and stormed the jail in an unsuccessful attempt to free him.

"Another Sunday Morning Coffee Ride"
Only 8 miles, but there were hills. Nice to get a morning ride in, especially for coffee.

"Sunday Morning Coffee"

Nothing like a Sunday morning ride for coffee before it gets hotter with high humidity.

Headed to Minneapolis this weekend, hoping to rent a road bike! Anyone know of a shop that rents road bikes?

update: there are now 'sidewalk closed' signs at appropriate locations, but no warnings about the bike lane closure and, crucially, no signs directing travelers where to go.
