If some guy looks like this, leverages the scale of the universe to compliment you, says he adores your writing, while mtn blue birds sing in the background of your phone convo while he is running in the mtns, umong myriad other glimmers, run away. 😅🫨 Seattle guys are trouble haha.

YES!!!! So cute!!! Love it when I find them napping.

Turtle alert!!! Saw them last week on a walk and glad to see they like the little log ring built for them.

My electric coffee grinder died after an unexpected tumble. So replacing it with a manual "beginner friendly" ceramic burr containing, high maintence one is the correct choice. 😅Japanese instructions only, which I am unable to read, but it does make excellent coffee. (Online instructions FTW.)

Made it to the match after all! Had to watch from the bushes because I was late due to important reasons. There where some other folks with blankets and nice set ups in this little wooded area. 10/10 for not baking in the sun like last time.

Lady Tove is an inspiration.

Made it to the Moomin and Tove Jansson exhibits!! The generous folks from the Moomin Museum in Tampere let us have this moment way out west.

I ended up back here on accident hehe. A guy was letting folks pet his service dog and on my way out said dog insisted on leaning on me for pets. He had the best day. Whish we could have this all the time. #worldcup

Arundel was as gorgeous as I hoped it would be. Built in 1900, with a mixture of new, used and indi published gems. Local art as well. #booksky #bookstore #designsky #books

Stealth loaf mode.

An Important Baby Bunny ALERT!!

Sound up for PNW world cup mood. USA vs Australia. #seattle #worldcup

Love that Seattle is one of the host cities for the World Cup. The vibes are immaculate and it has been fun helping tourists out and chatting up fellow soccer fans.

Rabid sports fan mode activated. I serendipitously found this free watch party. Welcomed some Aussies and apologized for their high gas prices, among other things.

This is where I post from:

They say "Hi!". :)

The day I finished this book, I spotted two Humpback whales breaching from my apartment windows, while I was enjoying my lunch. A mother and her calf were playing near the park and I like to think she was showing off her little one. 🧵 #books #booksky

One of my best friends from high school produced this film and seeing her creative process shine through on a film is the best. Good film independent of our history.

Yard dios spotted in the wild! Kind of funny that they are made of fossil fuels. What would dinosaurs think if they knew their remains would be made into miniature plastic figurines of them someday far in the future.

My fave local radio station has summoned me.

Does your tool box support muon colliders? #physics

Snowdrop season! (Also freaking out about the fact that we have not had snow in the lowlands with a limited snowpack at important elevations.)

Here's my contribution to this special day.

Lot's of pink light shows happening today.

Happy Valentines Day!! Here is a Hoya Heart Cactus!

Serious contender for 1st place of this year's Valentine's Day memes, but we still have time to see what else shakes out. #jazz #billevans

It is Superb Owl Sunday for all who celebrate. Here's a drawing I made from a while back.

Pleasantly surprised to find out that this is a Finnish company! They kept their original packaging language on the back at least. It was fun seeing Finnish 1st, then Swedish, followed by English 3rd. Love that they have fragrance free offerings and more responsible packaging.

Haven't been able to spot the aurora, but the sunsets and moon have been lovely.
