| 11:29 | BTW, fall colors being most cooperative. Just need to find better vantage points. |
| 15:54 | Just tried out the massage chair in my hotel room. Wasn't expecting a kind of Spanish Inquisition. |

| 17:08 | @scapersuse One of my favorites, ever since I had it in Belgium many, many years ago. Texas de Brasil in Vegas does a good one too! |

| 19:04 | Nice day for a drive. A long drive south to Avila Beach, where everybody in the area had the same idea. |
| 19:29 | You know what stress is? Having the low fuel light come on when you're at least 50 miles from the nearest station. |
| 20:20 | RT @barryeisler: @disorderly Could have been worse -- you could have been in a plane. [That happened once.] |
| 20:22 | Interestingly, my way-below-empty Camry Hybrid probably had another hundred miles range. Only took 14.4 out of 17.2 gallons. |
