Strangers

Running 4.3 km (new record) before going to work is the perfect start to a Friday. As is talking to a random woman about flowering trees while jogging and hearing her say: "You be careful out there, dear!"
Finding a never-seen-before-in-your-entire-life Mr. Rose-breasted Grosbeak (Pheucticus ludovicianus) at your feeder is the perfect ending to a week (even if the photo is a bit meh). And so are weekends :)

Four more days of work and SEVEN SLEEPS!
