Last week, (or was it the week before that? no matter..) on my way to school I spotted a Frocky Jack Morgan masterpiece hanging off a telephone pole. Yes, that's right, I found a work of wearable art hanging off a pole! It was hung off a lineman's stirrup, about 10 feet up. As I was late for school, I had to leave it behind.
After Pilates, I drove back before my math class. I was armed with fifteen minutes, a honda civic hatchback, and some sweet climbing abilities. When I arrived, there was parking just beneath it! I began to fish it down when I nice pastor came and assisted me. Then he blessed me and, as far as he was concerned, weird ideas... and put it in the back of my car. It filled up the whole hatchback area, including the folded down seats.
On Friday, I spotted this nice silver road bike leaning against a telephone pole on the "free corner". We call it this because it's heavily trafficked and if you leave something there, someone will grab it and take it away. Well, thinking that it was not left to be taken, I let it alone. Well, days passed and it just sat there getting rained and shined on, alternately. So I walked on over, spent a few minutes loitering and looking to give anyone an opportunity to claim it, and then rolled it home. It's a vintage (60s/70s) ladies commuter bike made it France. It needs a little work, but considering my bike was stolen a few years back, this is just amazing for me!
Also, a new photo of my new favorite model from Vorpal...
