I caught our kitty, Kikyo, on her high cat tree while I was reading on the couch. Thank goodness for the iPhone 13 Pro camera, always at the ready! And for your cat laugh: Kikyo is a "rescue" kitty, and if you are in need of an overlord for your house (dogs have owners, cats …
Since most of my photos these days are taken with my iPhone 13 Pro, I am quite proud of how well it takes photos in low-light conditions. However, even my old iPhone XR took excellent low-light pictures. Last year, on July 4, we went to downtown Bellevue to watch the fireworks (that had been canceled …

Since I am recovering from pneumonia, we mostly stayed home this weekend. On Saturday, New Years Day, I insisted on watching the big Hogwarts Reunion show on HBO Max. It was, simply, wonderful. I became a thorough Harry Potter fan in 2001, when we saw the first movie, and have been one ever since. I …
A few nights ago, I took a walk around my neighborhood, looking at all the Christmas lights put up by my neighbors. Some were very creative, and all were festive. Reindeer and deer were a common theme this year. One neighbor put up a pair of polar bears. I thank all my neighbors for their …

These are just too good to pass up. Enjoy. Just today, Kaiser Permanante suspended, without pay, over 2,500 of their employees, because they did not submit to the invasive medical procedure of Covid vaccination. My sentiments, exactly. And, finally, one from Joe himself. Thank you!
I just had to do this one, for my friend Cee, who doesn't live too far from me. Circles make the world go round (see what I did there?), and trace the roughly-circular orbits of all the planets and their satellites. Did you know that the ancient Egyptians did not use the wheel? They found …

In our technological world, we beat back the darkness with copious artificial light, enabling us humans to utilize 24 of the 24 daily hours we are given. In fact, there are groups who mourn the zillions of lumens of artificial light that our civilizations pour into the sky. Personally, I prefer to celebrate the fact …

In 2020, the Washington State Fair in Puyallup (pronounced Pew-al-up), was canceled, like everything else, due to Covid. This year, the Almighty Dictatorial Health Nazis in Olympia and Tacoma "let" it go on. Albeit with a Mask Mandate, requiring that all fair-goers wear a mask, indoors and out, regardless of vaccination status. What did that …
