The photo in my profile banner is a view of Lake Michigan from Traverse City, taken while I was there in 2018 on a business trip. It's one of my favorite photos that I've taken. The view is breathtaking, and even from a photo-nerd perspective, this picture has a LOT going for it.
Summertime is definitely upon us. The blackberry bushes are blooming.

Back during the Iran hostage crisis (1979 to 1981), a big thing at my junior high school was to sing the intro to "Barbara Ann" with the words changed to "Bomb Iran". Now, fast-forward to 2025, and we've actually done it. 🤔

I feel almost normal.
I am clean and fed.
I have enough pain meds to be mellow but not knocked out.
I have my Bible in my lap, a word game on my phone, and my laptop handy.
I have books at hand if I want to read.
I have cats wondering what I'm up to.
it is a good day.

Stick acquisition for the cover of my CEB Bible, courtesy of the cancer center. I think of this as the quickie version of Romans 8:28.

Our next-door neighbor is a pretty fair dendroculturist. The front yard is the pretty part. (In the back, he's had to take down a bunch of trees.)

So the NBA Finals are set. 🥱
I'm not particularly an Indiana fan, but just on general principles I refuse to cheer for the Oklahoma City Plunder.

Blossom on her "Pet Me" box. It's our thing: When she jumps onto that box it's her signal that she wants to be petted, scratched and generally fussed over.

Between my health and Tammy's work schedule, we don't have the time or energy for much lawnmowing. We have an arrangement where a neighbor's son mows the front yard. He was just out there and we have windows open to let air in, so now we have "grass clippings" scent wafting in as well.

This is a great story. I used to work for the agency that runs Community Transit's Dial-A-Ride service. As a result, I'm a big fan of helping seniors with navigating public transit.

Okay, now I'm cheesed at AMC. They just ran an ad for the 40th anniversary of Back to the Future, which, of course, was released in 1985. Thank you AMC for making me feel old. 🙄

Among life’s more satisfying small victories is when you encounter a stranger and their dog on the sidewalk and the dog immediately picks you out as someone they’d like to know.

Championship Feline Wrestling in the bed. It looks like Rose is trying to nurse off of Blossom, but what happened was that Rose was giving Blossom a face wash and Blossom decided to put her in a headlock. 🤣
