Such a nice atmosphere today. #ponds #massachusetts #misty

Two weeks ago I was in #Sedona, #Arizona for a week of #hiking I really fell in love with the character and unique beauty of the place. There is still magic in the USA.

For some reason at the time I didn't feel like posting, but now I will cherry pick a few faves when I feel like it.

This one was taken from a small extension climb from the end of Cathedral Rock Trail on 21 March 2026. #travel

Strawberry Fields Forever #🍓 #massachusetts #misty #farms

A short walk through Boston Common. #boston #bostoncommon #snow

I was taking a shot at 15x zoom of this bird in a tree and took flight. I just clicked randomly as I was too zoomed to see it on the phone screen. I like it. Shame about the blur. #birds #photography #winter

Some good melting going on finally. #massachusetts #winter #pondlife

Yesterday was milder, relatively speaking, and we had some melting. I managed a 40m/60k loop. It's slow going, but I'm on 35mm tires at 40psi, which I feel matches the conditions. Very salty bike by time I was done. #bike #bikerides #biketoot #biketooter #massachusetts #wachusett #reservoir #winter

Taken mid-#SnowMageddon last night before the first swipe with the blower. Lots of work to do today. #Snowpocalyse

#Skyrim will be in my soul to the end of my days. “Let me guess. Someone stole your sweetroll.” https://youtube.com/watch?v=0hQ4taBuTG8&si=3JCxOpnFFZykYsZA

A short walk through Beacon Hill, Boston. #boston #beaconhill #snow

The snow banks where I walk. On the other side are plowed fields, so those banks at least prevent additional drifting. #massachusetts #winter #snow

Four hot air balloons over #Sedona #Arizona. It’s a chilly morning, but warmer than most days in Mass since November.

Starry night walk on the ice looking for meteors. #walk #frozenpond #Winter

Is this real? Please tell me this is real. It's in English in Sweden and "train" is spelt wrong. Please tell me this is real.

I also wish the NY Times Pitchbot posted here.

I am probably blessed to say I have had a single-digit count of "worst days of my life", but sadly, the Columbia and Challenger disasters count among them.

With objective, critical hindsight, Nixon's low-orbit program direction was a regressive move by NASA and doomed us, probably for my lifetime, to never venture further. For instance, we just cancelled the Mars Sample Return project.
