Broken Stuff

It seems like the last couple weeks is about broken stuff. Angie was rear ended on her way to work. The car is broken. The refrigerator also decided to croak. Trying to catch up, gain back lost ground. We have a new car, very similar to the rudely smashed up car. I had it shipped from Texas. Also have a new a new fridge and backup freezer and fridge. Spring is very sprung. The pollen seems worse that usual this year. In Atlanta we complain about the traffic and the pollen, neither one is really as bad as we say.

This morning after Church I went and stopped into the D&D in Duluth and waited to see what interesting person I would meet this morning. They have a bit of a coffee house setup (seems appropriate). I met an interesting guy, retired, as a senior product guy for the furniture industry. It was an interesting conversation learning his path. He is also an economic refugee from upstate NY (I meet people all the time like this). He was an actual student of Buckminster Fuller. I really do like meeting these people with these all very different stories on the airplanes, airports, and coffee shops. It is one of the things I liked about Antarctica. I was alone, but not lonely. There was always someone interesting to meet. The folks in Northern Atlanta often have a life of success and are still very much approachable and grounded.

The pic is of Minneapolis in the morning. I never get sick of the views of cities from the air. In a small plane this view is the same.

Monday afternoon I am off to Wichita Kansas (pronounced "WA-Cheeta"). Then to Berkshire NY for the holiday and then on to Marktoberdorf and Munich Germany.
