Raccoon



On my way to downtown around noon, there was a raccoon on the pine tree. It did not shy away and even posed for me.

Bracketless wiper blades


For PNW temperate rain forest, we have natural sprinkler system to provide the water. As a bonus, the windshield wiper blades tend to wear out faster than other places. I've used Bosch wiper blades from Firestone store and they need to be replaced every year at minimum. Last week, I found a new type of wiper blades which do not have bracket at Sears Auto. Will try them out when it's pouring.

Do you have 75 cents?

The teenager asked, though she does not look like a typical panhandler. I happened to have 75¢ but still went "Sorry, I don't have it".
Afterwards, I look up the Pierce Transit's youth fare, it's 75¢!
What if she really needs to get on the bus and it's dark and cold in a not so good area. I feel bad about not helping her, hope she arrived home safely.....................
