Put festive lights on the cargo bike tonight. Did not have to read any Facebook comments all day. Cooked a spatchcock chicken (I can't recommend this enough, it was perfect) in preparation for Thanksgiving. I have also developed an entire rant against turkey, a disgusting seasonal dish.

So, uh, why exactly is SDCI digging into NWMLS photos of recently sold houses to chase down 20 year old additions and require new owners to get permits or rebuild?
