The young cardinals and titmice are about to experience their first hurricane winds tonight. I keep looking at them hoping they’ll be ok.

My wonderful wife surprised me with the watch I’ve been drooling for over for the past several years.


A super tiny storefront display of flowers were in bloom so I had to pause and appreciate their little color explosions.


We call it “The Sunshine State” but it started raining as soon as we passed the border and continued the entire length of our drive. Still, it’s good to be home.


Being in the Detroit area for fathers day meant we were able to attend the 2021 Henry Ford Motor Muster.

This glass eagle hood ornament by the French sculptor, René Lalique really blew me away.

Tons of unique cars from the 30’s through the 70’s we’re on display but this dayglow 1954 Nash Metropolitan stole the show.


Watching the technicians that are keeping vinyl record pressing alive at Third Man Records, Canfield. Nobody cares more for art than other artists.


Now that the whole family is vaccinated, we’re enjoying our first real vacation in 14 months with a cross-country road trip to our Michigan family. It’s amazing to be out of the house and seeing other humans again.


Teenage cardinal was a little calmer while hanging out with us today.


The sunset dipped lower into golden hour and the neighborhood quieted. The daytime animals and insects used the remaining light to settle themselves for the evening.


I met one of the new baby hawks on a walk yesterday. Totally fearless about us walking under her. I wish I’d had my real camera with me but it was close enough to capture this with my phone.


Tonight is looking more tropical than usual so we took a walk to appreciate the saturated sky.
