We’ve not yet exhausted the great stuffed animal collection but we’re mixing it up today anyway. My daughter has a small collection of farm and safari Anamalz so today we decided I would indoctrinate this menagerie in the commuting-on-the-“big boat” brigade.

So, one and all, welcome Pig. It was a beautiful clear sky today starting with a decent sunrise.

I found it fitting to take Pig to Salumi – he was never harmed.

The contrast of the bright sunlight illuminating Smith Tower against the threatening afternoon sky kept luring my glances.

An hour or so later the dark clouds were gone and Smith Tower was glowing orange from the setting sun.
