Humongous storage facility being build on Curtner, east of highway 87. Looks like cellphone reception will be exceptional.
Tangy Tomatoes
Couple of volunteer cherry tomato plants popped out of the compost bin and I encouraged them to climb inside the cages. Never seen them this tall before.
Trouble is, a good part of our compost is made from orange and lemon rinds, so the red little fruits are decidedly citric, puckerliciously so.

“Juice” must have had a tall ladder that night.
Crash at the Corner
Echoing through the neighborhood this afternoon, the sound of a serious car accident. As usual, it was at Lincoln & Malone:
No one was hurt seriously except the passenger sitting in the right car. She seemed to be in a state of shock and eventually left the scene on a stretcher.
The little pedestrian with the scooter was also hurt, but I don’t know how that happened.
This intersection seems to be a more dangerous than most. Why is that?
Fowl Weather
These pretty birds paid us a visit after the rain:

Tokyo Chris
Our friends have a son living in Japan. Skype allows them to maintain continuous contact with him, and report that he is doing fine:
Tokyo is 150 miles from the Fukushima nuclear-power plant damaged in the recent earthquake, but so far no one seems to think that current radiation levels in Tokyo pose much risk to human health.
