We were stuck for 2 hours on the Sunshine Skyway bridge over Tampa Bay today due to a fatal accident. Watching everyone get out of their vehicles, take selfies, throw footballs, fish, and wonder when they’d get home - while someone was dead just yards ahead - reminded me of my days in TV news, which were filled with these odd juxtapositions of both the most humbling moments and those of routine frivolity. Most people were probably just hoping the road would reopen, though perhaps for a few seconds they considered the life and death of the person up ahead. It will be the same for all of us someday.

We are enjoying a combined family vacation this weekend with @VivaFrei and a routine night fishing turned into quite the adventure.

We buried "Lizzie" after a short friendship. Lily and Jack love lizards. They have become a true delight for them since our move to Florida. Lizzie did not look to be well after a recent cold front and we kept him (her?) inside overnight. The next day Lizzie was dead, belly up. Lily asked to have a graveside burial so she led the proceedings. Overall I think it was a respectful and joyous celebration of life. Maybe Lizzie needed some cod liver/butter oil?
