Up, Up and Away!

Every time you step out the front door, you never know what bizzare things life will bring your way.

Was on my way to work yesterday morning.  Running a bit late, trying to take care of some tasks before the week ramps up.  Left the house a bit before 0700 and made the normal route down the main road heading across town.  Not more than 2 blocks from the house, as I pulled up to an intersection, off to the right on the side of a road, I spotted two bicyclists coming out of the neighborhood.  A man and woman riding together on two bikes headed east on the sidewalk.  Now, normally, this would not be enough to get more than a passing glance or even merit a blog entry, but today was a wee bit different.  What caught my eye (and I almost choke on my coffee) was the small detail that the guy was wearing a Superman costume.  Not your off-the-shelf, cheap Walmart costume.  Oh, no.  A full blown Superman costume with cape, tights, boots, and a big "S" on his chest.  And the woman was right behind him in a Supergirl costume complete with cape, skirt, and boots.  The only detractor was the bike helmet she was wearing.  That sight certainly kicked over my giggle box yesterday.  I had half a mind to turn around and go back to snap a cell phone shot but was running late.  Not every day you see the Man & Woman of Steel.
