What I saw during my walk today

Very pretty! Looks like the driveway of the hostel I stayed at in Bath last year.
 
checking out the street view of Bath...

ok... i've seen this in films a lot of times.
what is the deal with these crooked lines?
frankly i usually see them close to the curb.
this is the most concentrated bunch i've ever seen.

I looked it up and it said that in the UK, "they are used in conjunction with zebra/road crossings to prevent vehicles from parking or loading/unloading in those areas," just in case tourists get any funny ideas, I guess!
 
glad i snapped this a few days before Christmas,
it was a plain old tree again the day after...

i gave Amazon over a week to de-graffiti their box, so this morning i decided to be proactive.
can't believe i had some orange paint left over from an old project... :)

ok... now that i think about it, i guess it's like our color coded curbs here. red (never), white (loading), yellow (commercial), green (short time, posted), blue (handicap) ... those are probably confusing to tourists here, too.
 
i can take 80° C in Phoenix or Vegas... avg humidity ~25%
much different 80° C in Dallas or Miami... avg humidity ~85%
 
that's funny... i was just writing to someone about a project that was environmental tested 0° - 80° C ... guess it was stuck in my mind.
 
dry heat is much better but being sub-tropical here the humidity is shocking, I have to do any outdoor exercise early, usually starting at around 7am and finishing at around 8-8:30 am. Looking forward to winter which is a long way off.
 
Humidity is very hard to cope with. Luckily we hardly get any humid days. We're having a coolish day today- 21oC Yes!
