ira’s
If, after the long drive from Dalhart, Texas, to Nara Visa, New Mexico, you were hoping for a nice spot where you could have a drink and hang out with the locals – and you were even prepared to offer bonus points to a place that had a cool name like “Ira’s” – you are setting yourself up for ongoing thirst.
Ira’s is no more…

this guy*
I found this dude hanging out on the William and Mary campus the other day. He seemed to be enjoying the fall weather (as was I), and I assume that he was reflecting upon his own student days there, both as an undergrad and as a law student (whose law professor was Thomas Jefferson).
Or maybe he was thinking about that one time when he was the President of the United States, the way former presidents do.

dizzy
My brain does not like to see things that spin around. Seeing the motion makes it go all mushy on the inside (oddly, the exact feeling that calculus gave me that one awful semester in college).
Even standing on the ground trying to get a photo of the twirl-around ride* made me a little dizzy.
