saturday afternoon bliss out

every so often, i will set out on the bike with no particular destination in mind. with headphones and camera in tow, i'll just wander around and really take in the sights and sounds. i find this to be an activity best experienced alone. last saturday was just such an occasion.

boris

this is Boris. he's a muskrat (or is he a groundhog? - you be the judge). his name is taken from the Melvins song of the same name. i'm pretty sure he's the one who has been eating our tomatoes all summer, judging by the guilty look on his face (and the half-eaten green tomatoes he was nibbling on just before i shot this picture a few weeks back). he's rather overweight and furry and sort of reminds me of a rodent version of Smokey. i haven't seen him around since this pic was taken, so i hope he's doing well - wherever he is.
