Pesky things like jobs and prior plans. They’re gonna miss out

Trying, and failing, to get pals to go to the Herzog IMAX screening with me

We all listened to the baseball game on the radio while we worked on this, which was a nice touch.

Neighbor pals have gotten into vinyl and audio stuff, so they came over yesterday to 'optimize' my record player and audio stuff.

A large fluffy dog walking on a wooden harbor side pier. Rain has begun and raindrops are noticeable on the wood and in the water.

We got caught in the rain and now everyone is back home and uncomfortably damp

Likes are down on Bluesky? Better post more Enzo pics
