Close Encounters of the Blurred Kind

Today's Tracking
Jazzy and I went for a ride by ourselves today, on the recumbent 2-wheeler.  The weather was much calmer than yesterday, but a bit cooler as well.
We've had a vacant, years-neglected and never-finished house as a neighbor down the road from us for years.  The owner finally died without selling it and his grandchildren finally found a buyer, and he and his family are busily hauling out trash and hauling in materials for installing new interior, cabinets, etc, and generating a lot of neighboring noise and traffic.
This is the first of their vehicles I met on my way out this morning:

A Huge Trash Dumpster Truck

The road is a no-lane single passage goat-path, so I stopped and let him go by unmolested.  Lucky Him.

I encountered 3 more of the family's vehicles on the way back UP the hill toward home later on.  I got video of them too but will not bore you further, Dear Reader.
Beautiful riding weather today, just a bit too cool for me but not cool enough to stop and add a layer.
The almost total lack of wind, compared to yesterday and the two days previous, was wonderful.
