Wonder Woman just told me that there is mass anger and hysteria in the Wordle fandom community after the puzzle's solution was the word PSHAW earlier this week. Word nerds are threatening to file complaints (with who?) and promising to end their NYT subscriptions.

Good Friday morning from the banks of the Newport River, a couple of miles east of the Atlantic in SE North Carolina. Do me a favor, tell someone you love them today and punch Nazis.

In North Carolina, we say that the tiny little communities along the South Eastern coastal rivers are “ Down East”. The people have unique accents and the family cemeteries are huge and go back centuries. This is from Minnesott Beach, population 434, on the Nuese River.

OTD, 10 years ago. Me and Jolene hanging out at Hanging Rock State Park. Being a grandfather makes me want to live forever.

I struck gold at the flea market

OTD in 2013 - the view from the last shelter on the Appalachian Trail in New Hampshire the next day we crossed into Maine. #hiking

I made maduros tonight for the first time, like from raw ripened plantains, not frozen ones from Publix. Got the Wonder Woman seal of approval.

White Mountains National Forest in New Hampshire has the scariest signs. On top of Mt Washington they have a memorial to hikers who have died on the mountain and at the bottom, they’ve left spaces to add more names like it’s the employee of the month plaque or something.

A field of lavender beside a historic church on the south side of Paris.

It’s really kind of frightening to live in a country where half the people are detached from reality.

The memorial to the murdered Jews of Budapest on the banks of the Danube, killed by Hungarian fascists in 1944. They were ordered to remove their shoes before being shot, their bodies thrown into the river.
