New Building at Main and High st
Category: construction

Whatever kind of brownfield was at this space smells so sick like gasoline and chemicals. The smell seems so bad at night time. I hope I never have to work there but I can't imagine the land could ever be really cleaned. Will whatever is in there really not leak into the foundation. They have had suction trucks and tanks going for weeks. I really can't figure out what they are doing right now. Some sort of foamy water is being sprayed everywhere.

Beltane at Brushwood 2013
Category: brushwood

We headed down to brushwood for Beltane

The gaelic holiday welcomes the beginning of summer. I was reading that they used to extinguish the fires in the village and then relight them all from the beltane bon fires.

The weather was amazing, I had such a good time. I even had a good time throwing a football for what I think may have been the first time in my life.

Bikeride Continued
Category: biking

So it was around 20 miles total for lunch. The red part is a side trip casey and I took to get a new cable modem for him. Chicago street does go through so I had to ride under the bridge and over the tracks to hop over a 7 ft fence to exchange the the modem.
