A little more on traffic

It's on my goals to take more pictures of the "ordinary" things that I remember more clearly now aren't ordinary in MN. Tracy and I have often commented on our commute in the morning - do you think we'll even notice if there's a water buffalo walking down 35W? Or do you just come to permanently accept that? And on Sunday Chandra and I were discussing the coffee table book you could make "things you don't normally see on a motorcycle"...
So here is in fact a baby cow, getting a ride on a motorcycle. It was actually quite well behaved.This, approaching our newly reconstructed bridge, which has been rebuilt to be the size of our car plus 6 inches. And a guy doing construction in the lunghi (diaper looking bottom traditional in south India).There is a larger, serious bridge in construction on our journey...I missed the photo of its construction crew, a motley crew of guys with no hard hats, flip flops and cement. Hey, they must know what they are doing, right? It's a rather large endeavor.
And to end on, a picture of an actually well-fed cow hanging outside the sushi stand, where they sell Iron, steel and cement. Naturally.
