Let's Make Some Art, Dammit

August 1, 2026. I dropped off Andrea, picked up the bike, took the car in to be cleaned, then spent four hours cycling to Osgoode on the old rail trail, and back via River Road. A nice day, and to top it off, the Blue Jays won. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/MPsF90m

July 31, 2026. RedBlacks. It was Friday night football day today. Kind of a long day; I was an hour early for my doctor appointment (the risk of scheduling while cycling in the rain in a different time zone). Got some new Crocs to replace the ones lost on the ride. The game itself wasn't good; Ottawa quite rightly fired the defensive coordinator after, and the coach/GM has to be hanging on by a thread. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/wZF6oI8

July 30, 2026. Billy. Before I went traveling I went to Idea for a case to keep my various speaker's gifts from over the years; I wanted glass doors so they wouldn't collect dust. Getting the Ikea Billy bookcase set up was a task, and then it didn't fit right. Today I shook up my home office and moved it to its new location. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/F2VOexT

July 29, 2026. Moon. Today was dentist day as I went in for a regular cleaning and then took my bike into the shop for some repairs. I usually go to A&W after the dentist, which I did today, but it didn't sit well with me this time; looks like my one fast food treat tradition won't survive GLP-1 treatments. #SDDaily.

July 28, 2026. Baseball. When I was pushing through the cold and the rain over the last month I was dreaming about sitting in the stands on a sultry summer evening watching a ball game. Tonight we went for an Ottawa Titans doubleheader. First game was a dog but the second was a 1-0 thriller. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/Nq3X8rT

July 27, 2026. Jeff Banister and the Lenses. Scene from a shelf in my home office, where I spent most of the day puttering. I'm still in trip recovery mode, but beginning to do stuff again. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/rOMHswA
