Didn’t expect to end the day hiding in the basement with a tornado warning. Thankfully, none appeared and everything appears ok.

Most people apologize for an absence from their blog but the end of summer has been so packed with life that I can only celebrate it. Even my personal journal has been abandoned for multiple days.

I’ve been enjoying running so much that I bought a little helper to keep me on track.


Even though the new school year is looming, the evenings still stretch long. Besides, you don’t have to be in until after the steeetlights come on. There’s time for one more game.

I’ve made enough drawings for my D&D group that it was time to give them an online home. Sadly, I had to give up trying to make it work on my Micro.blog so they can be found on Cara.


Sharing a cool breeze during golden hour with some good friends from out of town is what summer’s about.

Visited a university my brother in-law’s architecture firm is working with. I saw many thoughtful details. This is the school of music and the staircase reveals how the entire building was designed to function as practice spaces by always angling one wall differently to better deflect sound.

At last fall’s ren fair, I was able to find a mini that matched my current Dragonborn character as he would have hatched. I finally painted him up and, because it was cast in transparent red resin, added an LED to give the embers around his egg a fiery glow. Really happy how he turned out.

My cat and I agree; sleeping in is one of life’s greatest luxuries. Five stars. Would sleep in again.

High up the mountain is an old stone bridge that beckons travelers to pause. For those who accept, it will trade a moment of beholding for a thought you’ve been trying to ignore. You won’t be able to stop the thought from surfacing however, the bridge is kind and will ask the stream to take it away.
