[Today’s run: Downtown Y to Lowes – 4 miles]
(I wrote a previous post about politics but I decided to erase it.)
Instead, here’s a picture of a house I used to live in. I haven’t been there in 20 years. But it still looks about the same. We lived there about two years.
The construction quality was not terribly high, so I am pleased to see it holding up so well. Maybe the HOA is doing a good job forcing people to keep their property maintained.

I remember seeing a picture of the house that my family lived in when I was born. They did not live there very much longer but moved to a different place when I was just a few months old. And I believe that house is gone. I know roughly where it was.
I was thinking about this place today because someone in another context asked about experiences with lightning. We lived in this house when a house on a neighboring street was struck by lightning. We noticed the neighboring house was on fire and we called the fire department. It was an exciting night.
