Often swear too much.
Sometimes incremental change isn’t enough and you just have to blow shit up and start over.

Interesting project moving through the shop at the moment.
Sapele entry door with an adze finish panel, set into the adze panel is a yellow cedar medallion that has had a drawing done by the clients daughter cut into the surface and then filled with black epoxy.
Should look amazing with finish.

The recent time change is having a more detrimental effect on me than I’ve noticed in the past.

Wife leaves for Australia today for a month long elder care mission so went out for a date night.
Great dinner out (Japanese) and rewarded with an amazing sunset on our way home.

My wife will be leaving for a month long family service (elderly parent) call to Australia in a few days so of course we spent the day doing recycle and Swedish Death cleaning.

Yesterday I posted about how we feed the crows regularly and how they now recognize us & follow us around.
Today they (the crows) took things to the next level by bringing one of the staff a special treat ….. a dead rat that I’m sure they thought was a nice food exchange. 🤷‍♂️

We feed the birds where I work and have been feeding crows in particular for going on 2 years.
They now recognize everyone who works here and rush the shop when they see any of us arrive.
Today I was followed down the street as I walked to our spray shop, kinda cool, but a little weird as well.

Fine tuning #stereo #sound today, been doing the #subwoofer #crawl around my listening room, and now I’m cleaning because wow, this floor is filthy. 🙄

Wife needs to make a short notice trip to Perth Australia to help out mom who’s struggling a bit with some recent health issues.
Going to be bacheloring for a month or so, these kind of events help keep you flexible in the brain and appreciative of the life you’ve built.

Of course with blue skies & late afternoon sun it was time for a quick ride and a snack out.

If you’re still awake in #Victoria take a look out a window at the #moon, pretty spectacular tonight.

Calming sounds of Sooke.
When all the news seems awful, check out for a bit and reconnect with the sounds of nature.

Yesterday was “Fishing Friday” but all I managed to catch was to much sun and a day of peaceful beach time with a friend, definitely a win.

#RoyalEnfiled #OneRide was a great success, weather was perfect, lunch was great, and nice to meet some other Enfield owners.

Wife is out, roommate is out, even the dogs are out.
Critical music listening session in progress, slightly louder than would typically allow for any kind of human interaction (other than dancing).

Had some #Starlink #satellites going over #Victoria this morning at 5am as I walked in to the office.
1st time I’ve seen these.

Has been a busy past couple of weeks, but still managed to find a little time for fishing & motorcycles (not at the same time) 😉

Got a text wishing me a happy Father’s Day, (1st Sunday in Sept.) in Australia.
So I took the opportunity to go out for dinner (it is Father’s Day).
Sen Zushi did not disappoint.
Thanks for the reminder son, I’ve now added it to my calendar.
