Another Dull Day In The Life
Fall Morning Walk
The title says it all. Breakfast, get a latte, walk 3 miles, shop at Target, take a short random drive, start a new jigsaw puzzle, finish watching the 2nd season of Shrinking, watch the World Series, shower, bed.

Summer Weather Trailer
Yesterday and today we were low 80s and tomorrow is supposed to be low 70’s, but Monday we revert back to the normal mid 50’s, so we took advantage. We enjoyed outside sitting on our porch and I went for the first bicycle ride outside on Friday morning. Then I put the summer rubber on the Miata in the afternoon.
Today we went up and watched the first game of a double header between the OIT ladies softball team and the visiting University of British Columbia squad. We stopped at Brevada Brewhouse on the way to pick up lunch and had a picnic on a hill just outside the stadium where the view of the overall field is better (and save the $4 entrance fee.)
Identity Crisis
On our weekly Thursday morning grocery shopping trip I noticed that the F was unlit in the Fred Meyer sign by the entrance we go in. This seems to be a running issue with this signs. Three weeks before that when we parked the dark letter was the r. Five weeks before that, both the F and the r were not on. I’ll let you know if in the upcoming weeks if the sign becomes just d Meyer…

#revchallenge
My pictures for a photo challenge announced on Instagram by my favorite Miata custom product guy Adam at revlimiter.net. It started on Monday June 8th and ran for the next 30 days, ending on July 7th. All the pictures, except about 4 of them were taken on the actual numbered day. I only missed one day, #15: Pride – I had a perfect idea for this one, but whenever we went there to take a picture there was a car in the spot we needed…

Sunset in the age of #covid19 & #alonetogether. (6/10/20)
Day 04 - Wheels #1
Oil Change Day. While it drains, I rotate the tires that are mounted on my WHEELS. While they were off I succumbed to luxury car anal retentiveness and lined up the center cap logos with the valve stem [Caution: photo two contains a blatant suck up in case the challenge originator decides to award prizes...] (6/11/20)

Day 05 - Passenger
99 and 44/100% of the time I am in the driver's seat, today I am playing PASSENGER and taking a selfie with two hands, so I won't drop the phone from a speeding car. (6/12/20)
Day 06 - After Dark
It is well onto day seven for everyone on the east coast, but the sun goes down way late here on the west coast above the 47th parallel. (6/13/20)
Day 07 - Curves
Not too many curves real close by. (6/14/20)
Day 08 - Track Day
Instead of our usual daily walk in the neighborhood, we drove up to Oregon Tech and walked around the running track. (6/15/20)
Day 09 - Hot Wheels
Which one is Mia and which one is Tia? (6/16/20)

First sunny day and the whole club shows up to get their cars washed. (6/18/20)

I had no picture in mind that wouldn't violate the Instagram decency policy except this. 🙂 (6/20/20)
Day 14 - Heart #1
The only sticker we "heart" enough to put on the outside of the car is the dragon from Deals Gap. The rest go inside the trunk lid. (6/21/20)
Day 14 - Heart #2

Day 16 - Car Hole
This hole used to hold a decorative "fog" light, but now it just holds a decorative mesh grill. (6/23/20)
Day 17 - Detail
On my 2 NAs this blanking plate was swapped out for extra lighting, in my 2 NBs it holds a micro switch that operates the garage door opener. (6/24/20)
Day 18 - Shift #1
Shift: This brushed Voodo shift knob has been my constant companion since the early 90s and has been the first "mod" in my subsequent 3 Miatas. (6/25/20)
Day 18 - Shift #2
Shift: This brushed Voodo shift knob has been my constant companion since the early 90s and has been the first "mod" in my subsequent 3 Miatas. (6/25/20)
Day 19 - Envey
It started as regret a couple months ago for not buying this T from blipshift, but now has morphed into envy of any one who did. (6/26/20)
Day 20 - Slam/Tuck
My lawnmower is slammed so it can be tucked under the home A/C ducting. (6/27/20)
Day 21 - Magazine
The July 1989 Motor Trend. How I learned of the Miata. For the whole story click here. (6/28/20)
Day 22 - Guages
I have a lightly customized set of Adam's 10AE (grey instead of blue highlights) and having lived with them for couple years I have started missing the light colored faces. I might just roll back to stock while I wait on the Sharksgiving Sale to nab some Version Redline gauges. (6/29/20)
Day 23 - Memories
We have participated in the #mossmotoringchallenge since 2014 and the road trips taken in pursuit of points have generated great memories. This pic from 2015 is from one the best, it involves a Washington County, the kindness of others and emus. For the story click here. (6/30/20)
Day 24 - Detour
ODOT's website tells me I would have to drive 70 miles one way to I-5 to find a Detour Sign, so I've opted for a blast from back in 2018. (7/1/20)
Day 25 - Lights
Taillights by the light of a tiny moon. (7/2/20)
Day 26 - Rearview Mirror #1
Photo 1: My favorite mod on the '95 Laguna - NB mirrors on an NA. Photo 2: I misremembered the category as just Rearview... so we went out tonite and recreated my favorite Instagram #cargirl pose. (7/3/20)

Day 27 - Take Out Drive
Nothing says 4th of July like BBQ. (7/4/20)
Day 28 - Solo
99.99% of the time the Miata is filled with both a pilot and a navigator. I am solo in it about once a month when I am sent a mile downtown to pick up and return with our pizza. This was me last time killing time in the parking lot waiting... (7/5/20)
Day 29 - Free Space
Sundown in the Klamath Basin. I was going to take a picture in an empty parking lot like I took today's challenge literally, but the navigator nixed it. (7/6/20)
Day 30 - Family
This is our family. She has a brother 500 miles away, I have a brother 3, 000 and the other siblings plus progeny are scattered all over. (7/7/20)
