Day 4 of Advent(ure) in System Seeing.

I did a little research on where my water comes from and Chico doesn’t use hardly any surface water (reservoirs) and rely almost totally on underground aquifers. We have close to 80 pumps, storage tanks, and hundreds of miles of pipe to distribute the water around.

Advent(ure) in System Seeing Day 3. I’ve got a head cold so thinking and focusing are not really at full strength today. But this is what I could do with the brain power that I have today.

It’s Day 2! It’s hard not to try and zoom out to infinity when thinking about the context that surrounds something as “simple” as a bicycle. There are some many bubbles that have to exist more than once. Retail stores so much context around them, insurance for instance. Manufacturers have to have insurance. Individual owners will insure expensive bicycles. Stores that rent bicycles need insurance. Insurance for everyone!
