My 97 RAV4 finally got a check engine light a couple weeks ago for the first time. EGR system code.
Finally was able to reach behind the engine thru wheel well and struggle to reach and replace vac hoses and the vacuum switching valve, and light hasn't come back yet. Yay!

My mom got a new bed and handed me down her still fairly new mattress and electric adjustable metal frame, which weighs a ton. I needed to install leg extensions and it's too heavy and awkward to lift. 3 ton car jack to the rescue lmao.

It's been more than a year since I've really been able to indulge in actual hobbies, but I feel like I'm really close to being able and ready to set time and space aside to get back to fun hobbies again. Maybe I'll get more active on socials then.

I've finally received my limited edition Grim Oak Press copy of Terry Brooks' Elf Queen of Shannara. Gorgeous as always with silver gilt pages
1 book left to go in the original 8 run series. Sadly missed book 2 which is super expensive second hand, but have the rest.

So they may not be fledglings and may just be crows bullying the eagle. It's hard to tell from the clip. I wish I'd been quicker to capture more of it. Still crazy to see essentially in outer east Portland.
I am confident this is a bald eagle I caught a few seconds of video of at a stop light in west Gresham.
Flying with 2 or 3 little fledglings too! So cute. They were all wheeling, swooping, and circling together in the same area.

I am excited to see that the new head of D&D at WotC is actively trying to repair the relationship with the Dragonlance creators.
I still need to finish the new trilogy, but I hope with non-adversarial support behind them Weis and Hickman still have great things to accomplish.

I never intended to get elbow deep in planning and implementing Furlandia for 2026, but here we are lol.
I'd accepted an executive consultant role this year because the transition to the new hotel and going in right is super important to me, and that's requiring extra work I'm happy to do. >>

Getting around to doing major car engine work on my '97 RAV4 that I've put off. Mainly remove/clean/refurb fuel injectors and install new valve cover gasket. I am majorly amateur at mechanic work and self-taught over the last few years. This is the biggest thing I've done. Also be doing full tuneup.

I love Portland's old neighborhoods. This residential street still has horse tether rings in the curb.

These artichoke plants are freakishly large. Like 10-12 feet tall. My hand in the second picture is at approx my height of 6 foot.

We spent over 2 hours touring the new #Furlandia hotel with sales staff. Very productive discussions about layouts. We are all so excited for our move to the Hyatt Regency.
Here is a main theater ballroom pic (so much larger) and a pic of downtown from a room hallway.

So I totally forgot to check out Zedd's new album "Telos" last year. Fixed that finally.
Holy sh!t what an amazing experience. Obsessed and emotional with the two opening tracks. 2024 was a great year for EDM Producers putting out pop albums.
