2/ . . . and private contractors. Essentially, people driving their own cars to drop off parcels.

The landscaping around the facility is nice. Wide berm, pedestrian sidewalk, grassy strip with trees, bicyclist sidewalk.

Even on business days I hardly run into anyone. Not a place for humans.

3/ So, I'm walking along this grassy strip and notice . . . water bottles.

There is remarkably little litter around there; there is no one to drop it.

Except for water bottles. *Full of pee.*

The Amazon drivers are too busy to stop, so they pee in bottles. And toss them on the boss's lawn.

1/ Got in my "steps" today walking Daphne through a office/industrial park area. Very light traffic on a Sunday afternoon, so the road noise was minimal so I could hear my podcasts.

One long stretch was occupied by a huge Amazon warehouse / transport facility. It dispatches both Amazon trucks . . .

With cake-baking marathon over, and a birthday non-celebrated, I skipped shaving, going to eat breakfast at McDonald's, and drive to the coast and let my dog run around on the beach.

Spent a few hours on Oregon's coast, in Seaside. A modest resort town.

It was bustling. Folks getting in beach time while the weather is still good.

@MicheleV_AK I was at this very spot last September!

This is the salmon sculpture seen at right of center, from the other side:

@adam You've probably been offered one already, but if you want a Bluesky invite so you can post there, just give a holler.

@adam Bluesky is another Twitter alternative. Currently a much saner place than X.
