200

Not much going on here. I am getting to know Davis very well through walks and bike rides. But, I really can't go anywhere else for the time being.

In other news, this is my 200th blog post.

Don't Stand So Close To Me

It's not that I don't like you. It's just that we need to practice "social distancing" in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19, the disease caused by a brand new virus.

Normally Dad and I head out to the desert in the early Spring. Not this year! I'm getting to know my hometown of Davis, California quite well. I'm staying at home right now like everyone else, but I walk or bike every day. Not a bad way to spend my time.

Going Viral

It seems like something is going on that's a bit out of the ordinary. I have watched people being more cautious around each other and I've been learning the fine art of greeting by elbow bump.

I really hope everything goes back to normal soon, but it's kind of nice that the world seems to be moving slower and quieter.

Birds

It's Groundhog Day, but all the wildlife I saw this morning takes to the sky.

Dad and I went to the Cosumnes River Preserve as we often do around this time of year. It was a beautiful day with huge flocks of birds wheeling around the wetlands. Hundreds of them by my count.

Later today, it's Super Bowl LIV. Normally I don't care about sports but this year...

Go Niners!

Deck The Halls

I hope that all of you have had a great year and that you're enjoying the holidays.

Depending on how you count it, we're about to start a new decade. It looks to be a consequential one. What will "the twenties" bring?

'Tis The Season

Time to go Christmas tree hunting...

Autumn Leaves

It's fun to help with raking leaves and putting them in a giant pile on the side of the street for pick up by the city. That's how we roll here in Davis

Guess what? I'm excited about moving to a new apartment very soon!
