daily slice-of-life photo blog of a Gen-X dad
The daytime temperatures in central Texas are reaching 100°F these days. I enjoy the heat, but it’s getting a bit much. The extreme weather and continuing pandemic are alarming when you take a moment to think about it. 😯

This evening I went with Rossa (my red Bianchi) to go look for some deer. There’s a nearby neighborhood in which I always see them, so I thought it would be a fun ride.
I also fixed up Rossa with the white Retrospec saddle, new white handlebar grips, and a pair of new tires. Everything was very inexpensive, totaling about $50. Add another $5 for the cabling to get her in safe riding condition and I am very happy!
I like the red and white color scheme. It’s fun and seems very 80s.
And of course we did see plenty of deer on the ride as evidenced by the first photo in the post. If you want to ride along with us virtually, hop on your stationary bike and put the video below on your laptop or tablet. 😁
I love donburi 丼 (rice in a bowl with a topping) and tonight Mariko made a new “fancy” donburi. It had egg, Chinese vegetables, and sweet ground pork for the topping. So good! ❤🍚 I could eat it every day.
