Real nice when you miss your train by 10 minutes and have to wait over an hour for the next one. At least it's out of the rain.

I recognize the landscaping in the photo from my neighbors backyard, but I have no idea how this picture came to be like this. #Abstract

A strange picture with a blue curved bottom and white top, with weird looking Agave stalks

I just spent a blissful news free week backpacking in Yosemite #SaveOurParks

Can confirm it is very good, but now need to mortgage the house. Was a balmy 100 degree walk (it's a dry heat), which was stupid because we could have parked at a nearby charger.

Stopped at the NY Public Library. Happened to notice this painting of a certain person being upset about his people playing around with a #GoldenCalf. Seemed timely for some reason

A painting of Moses, rather upset with some people

Hit the lottery for Stranger Things tonight, from the Standby list. Glad I decided to go since the trains just went on strike at midnight. I imagine it will be short, but you never know.

It was nice hiking the Backbone Trek with SMMTC.org for the week and not hearing the news

Maybe they're playing together now

Greetings from a goofy little friend I made on the trail today in #Idyllwild

Same picture, but with Alt Text

A French general just looked at Trump's plan to build a runway inside Iran to fly out uranium under active bombing.

His response: "American officials should stop snorting cocaine between meetings."

This is the same man who called joining Trump's war "buying cheap tickets for the Titanic after it hit the iceberg."

The French are not holding back.

H must have had my camera set to macro, I thought the effect was sort of impressionistic

I've been worried about shipping for a while now. Note the one(!) ship anchored off of the entrance to the NY NJ harbor. A couple more joined the next day, but that was probably to avoid hurricane Erin

Caught a bit of a protest march in NYC today. Chant was "Israel bombs, USA pays, How many children did you kill today"
