Happy that I somehow managed to capture the moon with my camera setup that was totally not prepared to do so.

We visited the outside of the newly renovated Michigan Central Station. We wanted to visit the inside too but Ford has decided to make it totally private.

My wife surprised us with absolutely fantastic Spicy Tori Ramen at ima in midtown Detroit. I spent a good deal of the meal with my eyes closed, wishing the flavors would never end.

The air is crisp and the evenings are more colorful as autumn arrives. 🍂

Large Fluffy clouds over a blue sky with sunset yellowing a plain block building in the foreground with an American flag painted across it

The lead in a flotilla of clouds caught the evening colors just right as they passed.

I managed to capture the evening colors before they left. They lasted less than a minute.

Finally getting around to reading the original Thrawn Trilogy from the earlyy 1990’s. Really enjoying it so far!

Every member of the household celebrates the start of “cool enough to open the windows” season.

Today my grandfather passed away. He was my last living grandparent so now that generation has completely exited my life and my parents have no parents.

Thankfully, my daughter’s grandparents are all still here. They came to celebrate her artwork being shown at the Detroit Institute of Art.
