Dressing up my physical park pass. A moose, black bear, or elk would be more relevant for my local NP but I see them in real life so I chose a different fren Cc @darthbluesky.bsky.social

When you pickup farm veggies via bike but you forgot how much foliage is on root vegetables and your backpack has a salad hanging out of it I need panniers!

If anyone wonders what Breckenridge Peak 7 looked like this week, see below. If they get snow today, be careful about hidden obstacles. I’m putting my skis away for the season.

People ski down a single groomed path surrounded by dirt and rocks

Really enjoyed seeing the northern lights in #colorado with the naked eye. Lots of neighbors and strangers out at the nearby lakes to watch.

Creepy.

While parents are asked to consent to these surveillance programs, the school's handbook says that there is "no expectation of privacy" on campus. If parents want to restrict recordings of their children outside of the school, they have to manually opt out of the "anywhere" option— as Jessica Lopez learned midway through her older daughter's second year at Alpha. The girl says she remembers sitting on her bed one night working on schoolwork when she received a notification that she'd been flagged for an anti-pattern. She says Alpha's system sent a video of her in her pajamas, taken from the computer's webcam, that showed her talking to her younger sister.

These are some of Boulder’s affordable senior housing, in a town that stopped allowing buildings this tall soon after they were built. Most places are not affordable and we cannot build any more like this. The seniors I’ve met who live here like them.

Lovely afternoon with Boulder Circle of Care and start to the Boulder Philharmonic season! Boulder Circle of Care helps reduce social isolation for our elders (and it’s fun to spend time with them). #boulder #volunteering

Not completely in focus as there was a breeze and it’s hard to get a single-handed phone photo but still cool from my walk today

the recipe from the cooking class I went to in Thailand is lacking detailed instructions, and is missing the butterfly pea flower for turning the sticky rice blue for that region, but is probably enough to experiment with 😂

I saw this bee working hard this morning. So many flowers out right now

Hike today was pretty but felt harder than usual. Coming back to altitude (~17% oxygen) is rough after being at sea level and breathing 🤿 nitrox for a couple hours/day (ranged from 32-34%).

Hikes are great #boulder

seriously: if the car is on fire then the doors should unlock automatically. These are apparently the instructions for escape from the back seat. Who the hell would know this as a passenger?

Screenshot from Tesla website describing how to open the rear doors with no power.

To open a rear door manually, perform the following steps:
Remove the rubber mat on the bottom of the rear door's map pocket.
Pull back the flap of plastic trim (if equipped), then pull the mechanical release cable forward and push the rear door open.

Hooray hikes

Chased some cooler temps on higher trails. It was still hot, but we found some remaining snow.

#Boulder’s electric HOP bus is 4.5 ft longer wheelbase than the gas buses. Yet the amazing drivers can navigate this narrow curvy road (they should train the fire department so we don’t need to build such wide neighborhood roads!)

This year I have met two different cats going for their first paddleboarding adventures, and today met a kitty in a bubble backpack going for a hike

Enjoyed checking out the leaves today. Last week, the aspens on this trail were barely changing (lighter green). This week they’re yellow but many are falling off quickly. #colorado
