It feels like Saturday today! A change in routine confuses my brain.

This morning I finally got to the salvage store, a trip I normally make on Saturdays. I had been busy going to other stores, where I would be more certain of finding exactly what I wanted.

By the time I got home from those excursions, motor traffic would be building up. Going to the salvage store means I must ride alongside three lanes of traffic for couple of blocks; so I want to go there early. Besides that, I suspect that the good stuff goes early.

It was quite a change to ride to the salvage store on Wednesday. Unsurprisingly, there was more traffic than there would be on Saturday morning. But I got to the store and back in one piece, which is what matters.

Today I looked for Taco Complete; none was there. Guess I’ll have to order some online. There weren’t any refried black beans, so I got refried pinto beans. I really prefer the black beans, but pintos are OK. In fact, I got a 5-lb bag of dried pinto beans!

Of course I rooted through the make-your-own-grab-bag bins. Two small bags, or $6.00, got me 37 snacks; including seven Kind bars! In fact, that grab-bag business is my favorite thing about the salvage store.

Getting back home was rather a problem. When I started out at about 8 am, the wind was only around 8 mph. Before I got back home, it had risen to 16 mph; and (you guessed it!) it was a headwind.

Even though it feels like Saturday, I’m glad it’s not. If it were, tomorrow would be long-ride day; and  the weather is shaping up to turn nasty yet again!
