Chilly Walk

Since I was up early for the Federer match, I decided to take the dogs for a walk just after sunrise. Shortly before our walk Chase alerted me to a coyote in the front yard. It was about 20 feet from our window just staring back at us wondering why Chase was barking. I hoped to see it again on our walk, but no luck.

Anyway, it is cold and icy here. The main roads are still a sheet of ice - I'm not sure that Brandi will be going to work tomorrow.

It's funny that the south cannot manage a little amount of snow and ice. I feel like I'm with The Big Guy at the Olympics, snowed in and preparing for the luge. I could probably set a Gaston County, NC luge record going down my street.

I'm Up

Call me crazy, but I'm awake at 3:30 am to watch Federer v Murray. The jet lag makes it easy to wake up early. (update) And I'm glad I got up... It's good to see the old guy can still beat up on the young guys. 6-3, 6-4, 7-6.

Cafe Girl

My wife is going to kill me for this, but my readers have demanded it. Here is the photo of the girl. I had to take this pretending to be searching on my iPhone so I wouldn't look like a stalker. Sotto on Equitable Place off of Little Collins. sotto.com.au

Federer and Hewitt at the FED

This is a photo of Federation Square I took in the walk home. Everyone was watching the Federer vs Hewitt match on the big screen. At the time if this photo, Fed was up 5-2 and he cruised to a 6-2, 6-3, 6-4 win.
