Let's see your apocalypse pics

I drove from near San Francisco to Davis and back today with my daughter to move her out of her college dorm. The campus was empty, and it was finals week. The town of Davis was empty, too. The pic below is the Bay Bridge on a beautiful Friday at 6 PM. It should be gridlock. Instead, well... It was eerie and a little spooky. The whole day felt like what I imagined while reading Stephen King, et al. Who else has eerie pics and stories?

You know what isn’t cancelled due to the apocalypse?

Calving...



This little girl was born at about 12:30 AM. It was -15C out so she spent the night in my shop. She has been reunited with her momma and all are doing fine.

Bellevue, yesterday, near the typically clogged ramp towards Redmond/Microsoft.

Note that the State still wants to charge for the "carpool" lane.

No typical Traffic.

-15C seems like a cruel way to have to come into this world.
