I suffered many flight cancellation but this is probably the first time that I got cancelled twice in the same trip!! My original flight from ORD to LGA got cancelled last night. My rebooked flight this morning got cancelled because same storm system prevented airplane from arriving from LGA.

No power no problem

I am back using fossil gas for emergency measures. Making pasta dinner for the family.

Kids swim class with King Arthur baking company catalog. I feel very home maker.

We added three more books from this series. My kids love this series and to be honest, I enjoy them too.

New wood block hanga

The Japanese pear is looking nice this year. We planted 5 years ago

ホクホクしている

Setting up my work desk at home. Got an Anglepoise desk lamp and to make a color match, I spray painted the clamp and keyboard.

Am not buying

New version of air filter 12*12*1 with MERV 11 filter

Corn from Oxaxa is growing huge in our community garden.

This MIRA gas mask is really effective. Pros: I did not smell nor taste any smoke at all. All drivers stay away from me while I am biking. Cons: It is heavy on the neck.

I had a gas mask already prepared when ICE and the National Guard invaded Chicago. I didn't have to use it then, but maybe now is the time. Though I wonder if it may freak out neighbors a bit.

Linoleum carving at the night

We live in a helish time.

妻とdesign within reachに行って、色々オフィスチェアを試した。Sayl Chairのデザインが素敵だと思ったが、僕は時々、姿勢を変えてアートなどをしたいので、機能性を考えて定番のAeron Chair を手に入れることにした。妻も、白ならAeron Chair でも良いと。夫婦でお揃いの二脚である。ようやく、オフィスの仕事場が整いつつある。キーボードはHHKBである。KVMで使いたいのでUSB接続で。

My 版画 set up

Kids made me watch winder.

seeing the execution status of spark in Databricks is oddly satisfying.

I got mine around 2014 and it has been a good bag for photo equipment and other travel.

Good morning bee, she is in the pollen pit, just a huge chunk of food for her. Probably a food coma.

New block print on basswood plywood. It is real 木版画 The details came out much better than I thought.

I see more of these fancy canned fish, from these and by Patagonia. Is sustainable fishing and living wages the reason each can cost $10-$15 or just overpriced?

One of the best rigs I've made in the past few years is this planer table. I didn't know that the planer would weigh 90lb. So I made a cart and I can store the table saw as well.

This is from Neko Temple

Finally done Manekineko Linocut with oil ink

Organized the living room bookshelf today, thanks to help from my wife. (I have two more shelves for art books and Japanese literature)

Finally carving is done. Next I am going to print it with ink.
