Custom-Made Bicycle Inspired by Japanese Lattice Woodwork


Japanese student and bicycle enthusiast Hiroto has merged traditional Japanese craftwork with bicycle-making to create what he calls a wa-modern bicycle. Borrowing both the technique and naming of Japan’s traditional wooden latticework, 
Hiroto is calling his piece “Kitsure.”





2GN2S #2:

 My long time friend Linda, sent me this and Iam sharing. 
Sean McCarren, a UPS driver, created a group, 
 named   UPS Dogs, here, which was an instant hit. 
It currently has an overwhelming 14 million viewers. 
Once you check out the page, you’ll understand 
what the fuss is about. These photos are posted by other 
UPS drivers who encounter the animals along their route.


The page also features the relationships these drivers form with the rest of the community. Even UPS approves of the page, stating that it shows how lovable their drivers are.


McCarren shares that once you run into the same dogs 
over and over, you can’t help but form a special bond with them. 
It’s like meeting a new friend whom you look forward 
to seeing every day.  Pure positivity. 
Maybe when time allows, see more UPS animals, here

And, a puppy pile, live, here,
future Service dogs will melt your heart.




Smiles (10) for Sunday ...
