SOTA activated Fitch Mt. (W6/NC-419). It was a challenge but KB6ZOP and I were successful.

We are trying and failing at activating US-3531, Petaluma Adobe State Historic Park. 3 contacts in 1 hour. Ouch!

It is a beautiful day, though.

Yesterday I took a walk in a park with Jim and Matthew. We walked 3.4 miles, found 12 geocaches, and saw billions of wildflowers. It was an ideal day.

#ClimateJustice centers the communities that are on the frontlines of the climate crisis and environmental injustice, and must must center LGBTQ+ people –  particularly transgender people of color – who experience compounding discrimination and violence. #TransDayOfVisibility

Yesterday, we acquired a Yaesu FT-891 with the FC-50 antenna tuner for the sole purpose of Parks on the Air. We have been enjoying the POTA hobby and decided to invest in a smaller station.

To celebrate we activated US-3432, Folsom Lake State Recreation Area, from Nimbus Flat.

We HAM radio activated Point Reyes National Seashore at Bear Valley Headquarters (US-0651). I also participated in the Protect Our Parks protest at the same location.

I am in doubt, so I am going higher.

Do not exploit National Park lands.

I wrote several thousand words on what oligarchy is, its historical context and providing more resources for @feministbookclub.bsky.social and you should read it? Let's get educated babies!

What even is an oligarchy? Or an oligarch? What does it mean in the United States today? Natalia gives some context in the latest for FBC.

Visiting @mugsyme.bsky.social for the weekend. She inspired me to karaoke for the 1st time in my life. We are forever in blue jeans, babe!

I am amazed at how little I have looked at my phone since I removed IG. It is nice repurposing that time to read.

We took a tour of the Point Cabrillo Lighr house and got a close-up view of the Fresnel lens. I ♡ fresnel lens. #fresnel #pointcabrillolighthouse #lifeexperience #worthit

I finished the Goldwing sweater. I am wearing it today before blocking it. I could not wait to wear it.

Progress on the Goldwing sweater. Both sleeves are complete. All ends woven in. I just need to finish the body.

Progress on the Goldwing sweater. I took a flight to and from MT last weekend. I learned I do not need to stowe knitting projects during takeoff and landing.
February 13, 2025 at 1:44 PM
5 more colorwork rounds before I split for the sleeves. I am so excited! I am enjoying knitting the Goldwing pattern.

Today's project. A basket made from Love Fest Fibers Tough Love. I asked my soon to be daughter-in-law what she wanted for her bridal shower, and she wanted me to make her another basket. The image shows the mold still in it. It will be filled with kitchen utensils and loaf tins.
