Don't understand your post at all. Missing a lot of cultural context, I guess

I think it’s a recycled plastic of some sort. Definitely not real wood.

SiJy: Andrew used the Pentax K1 II (the katana). Now he's back with a nifty sidearm: the GR IIIx (the tanto). Right?

Sorry for butting in - but katana and tanto are well known to me (martial arts).

The two most important people in my life.
Not often I can share photos of my family online for respect of their privacy, but this one is very neat.

Matt hit the nail on the head, that was very cryptic on my part, but I was curious whether anyone would catch on. The analogy works pretty well in my head: both Japanese designed cameras, technically made by the same company in fact, the one a large, weighty and powerful full frame shooter, the other small, fast and sharp. Sort of a big sword/little sword combo.

Our neighborhood hawk turned his back on last night's sunset. More orange than usual from California fires (far away from us so far).

A unique design for a foot-pedaled vending cart. More common are hand-pushed and trailer-towed designs. I've seen this vendor a few times in around the same place around the same time of day. I'm not sure why, but it seems that he changes location between the morning commute and lunch time.

this typ of vehicle used to be very common over here. Up to the previous generation. It is known as a - literal translation - baker's bicycle. Simply because that was what bakers used to deliver the breads house to house.
A car couldn't be afforded.
Then they gradually disappeared but lately, we saw a revival. Not for transporting bread anymore but once children - still too young to ride on a bicycle themselves.
As such, these contraption have become the terror of automobilist and other - regular - cyclists in the busy city centers.
Because they are wide, taking much more place than regular bikes and not manoeuvrable at all.

Our town just installed an outdoor art display called The Half Mile of Horse Art walk. Local artists were chosen and painted horse statues which are now on display on stands along Main Street. When it’s less crowded I’m hoping to take a closer look.
