Police Line - Do Not Cross

This morning I'm riding my bicycle, navigating various bicycle paths
and detours to avoid closed bridges and road outages. This photo is of
the smaller East Benton Steeet bridge that connects to Gilbert Street.
The larger Benton Street bridge is still open that goes over the Iowa
River. Gilbert Street on the south side of Iowa City is busy with
traffic.

Breakfast

Breakfast consists of Nature's Plus Source of Life Energy Shake (two scoops of powder mixed with 300 ml of water), Kashi GoLean Cereal, and organic spinach with dressing. This simple meal contains more protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients in one meal than what an entire day's worth of typical meals would provide. An additional benefit of the cereal and energy shake is that these items can be stored for an extended period of time without refrigeration (saving energy) and their preparation requires no energy (for cooking or heating).
