Trivia and a Saturday Night Poll

Today I rode my bicycle 8.6 miles round trip on the Watters Creek Trail, from its trailhead near Ridgeview to its terminus on Bethany. I put on my yellow poncho when the rain began. Prior to that, I walked Beatrice in the cool morning-time.

We met our friends Scott and Donna for dinner at a Chinese place called Yu that is just the sort of well-appointed but inexpensive Chinese place we like. Then we all went to see the Second Exotic Marigold Hotel at the dollar movie-house next door.

I spent a lot of time taking short videos of birds and flowers. I accidentally broke off the tripod screw holder on my camera by twisting one twist too far.

Let's try a poll tonight:
