Tulip Festival in Abbotsford BC today.
Being retired means I get to go to events on weekdays and skip the crowds.

Are you freaking kidding me? Now!?!?!?!
Looks like they are potentially entering Loss Of Signal zone soon.
Anybody else watching Artemis using the NASA simulation tool? They will be passing behind the far side of the moon soon.
I bought a vintage bottle of wine that I am saving for that day.
Nice!
I just came across a link to an interactive tool for tracking the progress of the Artemis II flight.
Very cool.

There is a catch to an electrolysis reaction using seawater because the biproduct is chlorine
Desalination plants use the same process to generate chlorine to add to the seawater intakes to prevent organic growth. But that is small scale. Industrial scale would create massive amounts of chlorine.
I managed to catch the launch today. I was surprised at how fast my pulse was during the last minute before launch.
It definitely brought back memories.
Well that was a buzzkill for deep space exploration.
So apparently some big investors have arrived at Bsky and there is talk of bringing in AI.
I joined this site on the condition that it does not succumb to enshittification so I am watching more closely now.
As much as I love being here, my membership is conditional.
Auld wooden bridge in Serpentine Western Australia
Not much left of this old bridge so I guess it can be called "kaput".

Thaipusam festival
When I was a kid your age, my parents made me wear a yoke to carry their loads (through the snow, uphill, both ways), but I was grateful.

I like the leading lines
Shout out to @lammcs.ca for creating their deshitified alternative to Faceborg.
Here's hoping they can do for Faceborg what BlueSky has done for Xitter.

There is a new social media platform out there that might do to Facebook, what Bluesky is doing to Twitter.
Check out Hey.Cafe.
No adverts, no algorithms, no schlock. Just posts from your friends and groups.
See you over there...
hey.cafe/@hey
Remember the early days of Faceborg where the only posts you saw were from your family, and friends instead of the non-stop rubbish pushed by Zuck?
Now there is a very new site that is growing fast. I think this has potential for shifting a lot of users over.

Chickadee eating sunflower seeds
Gray Jays. Like Blue Jays but Gray?
Can you tell I don't know much about birds?
I eventually learned that these little cuties are called Chickadees.

Hey @archaeopteryx2.bsky.social do you know what kind of flying creature this is?
They seem to be quite comfortable eating out of people's hands
Howe Sound
It was 15km, and over 400M of vertical. This view nearly killed me but it was so worth it.
This is the bay that Doc was always talking about when reminiscing about his old job at the Papermill.
The Lion's Gate
Hidden view of The Lion's Gate.
I managed to catch a glimpse of the Lions through the trees on my hike today.

Same here. Cholesterol must be on a break or something, because he looks like he is constantly on the verge of stroking out.
St. Mark's Peak
I'm heading out for a hike over the mountains today. It will take my mind off all the dumpster fires burning around me.
Also, it's a hell of a hike. What doesn't kill me should make me stronger.
Happy Statue
Happy!
