I grew these! But the storms knocked the plants down, so I had to get my biggest vase out.
The shorter of my sunflowers is over 12 feet tall based on 6-foot fence height. The taller one might be pushing 14. Almost ready to bloom.
Northwest side is blowing up. I'm sitting in my backyard blasting 80s heavy metal and smoking weed and watching about 15 degrees of the show.
Today was my last elementary school drop-off. End of an era of hauling kids on bikes - 15 years! Cargo bike life!
What if I had to go pick up a bunch of plants? Can't do that by bike.
I got my first copy from my @chicagoreader.com subscription today!!
Wind was so bad it tore our flag off of our front porch and destroyed the bracket
I bought the Japanese Madras jacket that @jamellebouie.net shared last week-ish. I absolutely adore it. Totally my vibe. Thanks dude!
I am once again reminding cargo bike families that the clarinet is a really nice instrument that your kid should learn to play instead of the tuba.
Biked to the show tonight. Brought the boy. Looking forward to Teen Mortgage and discovering the other bands on the bill.
Vincent (below) and Theo (above) are having a lovely sunny morning
If the bathroom doesn't look like this, you're probably in the wrong place
Just got my copy of Free Chicago. What a gorgeous book! Long live the @chicagoreader.com I can't wait for the next 50 years.
Theo is watching me shovel. Watch out, little white dude, might scoop you right up.
My GSD front rack had a massive fail today. Noticed it being wiggly while I was riding. Had to unload it and strap it up. Multiple failed welds and a cracked in half tube. Wonder WTF I did. Wear and tearing shit up, like usual.
Happy Friday! Bike Winter! I saw 3 other bicyclists out there and tracks from a couple more.
