Ending “relentless war” and starting “a new era of relentless diplomacy” sounds good to me.

The find includes a triceratops specimen, and another that could be a new species.

Yeah, me too. I’m recovered, though. Mostly.

A combination of natural infection with SARS-CoV-2 and an mRNA vaccine might provide some level of super protection. I think there’s a subset of the unvaccinated who are relying on their prior natural infection as justification for skipping the vaccine. Turns out, getting the vaccine might make them the fittest of all.

The morning commute brought some excitement today: “very low” tire pressure…and a train. I was actually trying to add air to one of my tires this morning, only to find a hole in the hose and learn that I was actually removing air! So I headed out to find a gas station with an air machine…only to be met by this train. Happy Monday morning!

Had we still lived in Chicago, this would have made a perfect, last minute anniversary outing for Renee and me.

Well, this is probably a sign that my decision to “switch enthusiasms,” from fishing to aviation, is sound. Horrible day of fishing today, and I checked the sky every time I heard a plane fly overhead. And I was quite excited with this King Air flew over…can’t wait to tell Jake.

Through I would grab a few quick hours of fishing while Jake was at work. And I did. But, it was probably the worst fishing I’ve ever had at Rockwell! Not even a single bite. I’m probably not renewing my membership next year, either. I certainly can’t end on this performance. I’ll be back.

Great game between the Ravens and Chiefs on Sunday night football. The NFL season, just two weeks old, has already been compelling.

I don’t know if I’ve discovered a better feeling than having pride in another human being that you’ve provided some level of encouragement to along the way. I feel that all the time with both of our boys. It is, without question, the best feeling in the world.

We needed some cat food (for outside kitty!) tonight, and decided to take Teddy to the pet store. We didn’t know what to expect, but he actually did really well. So he got a new toy as a reward.

Heading out to take Jake to the airport for his long range solo cross country flight. He planned it last night - Fremont, to Lima, to Mansfield, and back to Fremont. He’s beyond ready for this!
