Cycle around enough and you see things

Yesterday it was the Portland-permitted shantytown of Hazelnut Grove. Today it was a Prius fire. Seriously. And I wouldn't have seen that except I turned around at one point to go back and buy some mangoes from a street vendor at Skyline and Cornell and had a chance encounter with a coyote. At the Prius fire (2004 model), I hung out with the driver while she waited for the fire truck. We both were expecting the car to blow up at any moment, but the fire truck arrived before the fire reached the gas tank. The driver wasn't too happy--this was her "good" car--but philosophical, which is all you can be when life throws you a ball you can't throw back.
