In case you were wondering, this is what 5 kg of jelly beans looks like:

You’re two tents

Here we observe a specimen of that rarest of species: the Walking Tent.

An upraised tent, legs protruding from its door.

And here are two natives, apparently acolytes of the Tent, worshiping at its altar.

Katie and Sherry kneeling to press the air out of a folded tent.

High Rise Roller Coaster?

A high-rise under construction, the top scaffolding looking suspiciously like a roller coaster.

This is out off of the 60, not far from Hadley’s Orchards and two new casinos. It seems to be a hotel, but the curves in the scaffolding really do look like a roller coaster!

111111

While driving home from work today, I glanced down at the odometer and saw it read 111,110. So I drove around the parking lot a bit, then stopped to snap a photo at 111,111:

Picture of odometer reading 111111

OK, this isn’t exactly fascinating photojournalism, but really, how often are you going to see all odometer digits the same? Your car probably has a few miles on it when you drive it off the lot, so you never see 000000. And what are the chances that you’ll still be driving the same car after 222,222 miles?

(In case you’re wondering about the trip odometer, it didn’t roll over at exactly the same time. I zeroed it because I figured it would make a better picture – all 1’s on one row and all 0’s on the next.)
