Planted two pawpaw trees in my backyard a couple weeks ago—roots looked decent, but the trees themselves were pretty dry. Followed all the planting instructions… now just playing the waiting game. Anyone know how long before I see signs of life?

Solar is about to get really expensive. Hopefully the US market will inspire domestically produced hardware innovations quickly.

One time in the early 2000s I tracked down Slim Goodbody (right) to fly him to #Omaha for a special event. True story. #captainkangaroo

I’ve grown to believe that while voting is a right, it’s also responsibility. We need to support elected officials who will represent our beliefs and our way of life, or someone else will make that decision for us.

Beautiful bike commute to work this morning. Thought this spot, on Farnam Street behind our building, was a good place to take a quick snap of my e-bike. ❤️

I haven't eaten at McDonald's in years, but I miss those deep-fried, lava-filled Hot Apple Pies. The ones that burned your mouth and fingers. Some things are just better scorching hot—like a Runza at Memorial Stadium. Delicious & a perfect handwarmer during the 4th quarter.

The Harney Street bridge is completely gone—a strange sight after riding my bike over it countless times to and from work. It’s being rebuilt to accommodate the new (and controversial) streetcar that will eventually connect UNMC, Blackstone, and downtown. 🚲🚧

We tried the Rathskeller German restaurant here in #Omaha this weekend, and the food was better than before.

Ribeye steaks, homemade twice-baked potatoes, fresh green beans and garlic Texas toast for dinner for my wife’s daughter’s birthday. Yes, there was cake - ice cream cake, because it’s birthday girl’s favorite! ❤️🎂🥳🎈
