A day in the life

Okay, I'm going to do a 'RIDE' style post so bear with me...

Got up and got the little one ready, strapped in the car and we pull out of the garage:


Hey Charlotte, are you happy?


So we got a bit of snow and freezing rain last week... big deal:


The RIDE shot:


A quick check to synchronize the watch and clock (AKA the Yogi shot)


Right down the street, the world's only capital city with an operating farm in the city limits.


Damn, can't stop looking at my watch!


Yes folks, the temp this a.m. was -5.5C


Drop the little one off and then I'm on my way:


Checking traffic in the subdivision...


Time to jump on the Queensway:


Traffic ain't too bad today.


Getting close, my exit is next:


That steeple looks kinda new.


Glass and concrete... I must be downtown.


Ahh, there's the garage.


Tucked safely away for the day.


No morning would be complete without a pitstop at Timmy's.


A short walk to work... almost there.


Now, time to log on and see what's what.


Ahhh, extra-large triple-triple!


After a 'tough' day, I get to drive home in the dark. Remind me to clean the inside of the windscreen.

Don't mind me, I have got a habit of looking for things in pictures that people otherwise won't notice.

Isn't VIN Number a bit over redundant?
Sort of like PIN number or the one that really ticked me off, was a few years ago during election time, The NDP ( New Democrat Party) had TV ads with.
"NDP Party"

I just figured out the VIN Number.
The one on your car is the VIN N. It is the number of the number that references your car.

Thanks for the vin, I just entered your car stolen BTW, is your head really shaped like that, or was the lens out of focus?
