Things I learned this week

• Riding a bike with a watermelon in the basket has meaningful implications for your balance.
• Elasmosaurs, dinosaurs with "these ridiculously long necks", are a thing.
• There really is weather bad enough to merit pulling off the highway. I was previously skeptical of this.

• To return to the watermelon, agua de sandia is absurdly easy to make, especially considering the deliciousness-to-hassle  ratio.
