Ah, here's a better one of the "Dawn Patrol" patrolling the dawn over the Great Reno Balloon Race. This was a great morning for the balloon race. It's the first year--since I can't remember--that we didn't have wildfire smoke filling the air. Although, it was scary warm out. I rode my motorcycle to the event at 3am in a long-sleeved shirt! Decades ago, it was always freezing cold.

@broadwaybabyto COVID aside, I wear a N95 mask in a doctor's office or hospital because...wait for it...there's sick people there! I don't shake hands with healthcare professionals either. (They should know better than to offer a hand.)
