Safety in Numbers – #1LinerWeds

JusJoJan Badge

Being sick during the work-a-day portion of this new year, I hadn’t yet been able visit Great River Park. I wanted to stop on my way to work yesterday, but I wasn’t sure it was a good idea. We had received a small amount of snow overnight. Such an insignificant amount of snow wouldn’t normally bother me, but the entrance to the park is steep, it curves, and it ends next to a river. However, once I saw that a few other cars had made the trip, I figured:

“It can’t be too crazy, I mean others have done it.”

It might be better if the playlist of my life didn’t include artists like Mary Chapin Carpenter (see below gallery).

This post is part of Linda G. Hill’s fun weekly series One-Liner Wednesday. And, given the time of the year, it’s also part of Just-Jot-January. If you have a one-liner, I’d encourage you to join in on the fun. You can follow this link to participate and to see the one-liners from the other participants.

This looks safe. It’s really not much snow.

Look at all those tire tracks. This is safe.

It was still snowing when I arrived.

Just a picture. I’m not going to walk down the ramp (besides, it’s roped off).

Not much snow, but it’s pretty. No Lime Bikes today.

The Colt Dome still makes me smile.

They moved the road cones. Now we’re not allowed to drive anywhere near the boat ramp. Might be a good idea.

I gave Maddie a tube from some wrapping paper. Who needs dog toys?

Hmmm. I’m working at home and I need to use the desk under that window.

“You can work at the desk but no touching my feet or my tail. Got it?”

Fog is rolling in tonight.

This is what our parking lot looks like when I get to work.

Home sweet office. My early bird coworker has the lights on already. (3rd floor, above entrance).

“OK. I’ll stand still for your picture, then you brush.”
