I don't listen to radio or follow charts. At the moment I'm really enjoying Rhiannon Giddens "Hope Is the Thing With Feathers"

It sounds like what the musicians in my family would play in the evening when everyone gathered together on my aunt's front porch while us kids chased lightning bugs.

I had a fun weekend at the cabin and learning how to use my telescope. For being so automated, there are still myriad settings I want to learn to get the best images. I'm also relearning the map of the sky. So many changes since my childhood refracting telescope. Thanks @haenck.bsky.social!

The cabin is decorated for instagram. There are even fake plants and macrame.

The air fryer is enjoying a change of scenery.

M13 star cluster. It’s early. Better images to come.

I’d prefer a senator who is a furry.

I was going to say more, but the period looks good there.

My favorite keto pasta added lasagna sheets to their offerings. It’s the first lasagna I’ve made in a few years without zucchini or hearts of palm sheets.

This is Great Grandmother Edith later in life. Taken on two different occasions, same dress, and sitting in the same chair on different sides of the table. I overlapped the windows and took a screenshot.

That's my Dad. This photo "disappeared" after his funeral. They eventually "found" a bad photocopy and mailed it back to Mom. I hate, love, and miss him. At 00:00 on October 31 it will be 25 years. Wonder what else I'll find on this drive.

Looking through the hard drive from Mom's old MacBook and there's a folder named "From the Desktop" and inside it there's a folder named "From the Desktop" and inside it there's a folder named "From the Desktop" and inside it there's a folder...

My maternal grandpa's parents, Theodore and Edith. Theodore's parents were Jean Pierre and Marie Rose, born in the late 1700s and immigrated from Franche-Comté, France to upstate New York. The family had money, lost it, and moved to Iowa. Dark hair and ice blue eyes are a family thing.

In the 90s I went to an SCA event with friends. On the hotel TV they had Sailer Moon playing one episode after another on a loop. It was the only SCA event I've been to, and I was too shy to have fun of any kind. I hid behind my friends and did my best to be invisible. Now I hide behind Patrick.

I tried making pepperoni Detroit style in the air fryer. The other is bbq chicken on one side and the other side is half pepperoni and black olive and ham and mushroom.

Working late before taking a week off. Taking my telescope to a geodesic dome cabin steps away from Lake Huron in a dark sky sanctuary and finding galaxies.
