These are the states I’ve been to – looking forward to traveling to Maine this summer to finish off the northeast. ?️
An evening scoot for scoops
We moved to Philadelphia over the winter and I love living (somewhat) close to the ocean again.
Peer and Patron: Selections from the Private Collection of Dorothy Gillespie was a great exhibition. There were pieces by Bauhaus professor Josef Albers and Ellsworth Kelly as well as her original work. ?
We finally went for it and bought bikes. With my parents in town for the weekend to help with the kids, we took every chance we could to go ride the Fort Wayne Trails. Sore today, I need to build more endurance. ?
We had our first complete week of dry warm weather in Indiana. A little early this year! We did a pretty good job keeping up with walking our oldest to / from school during the winter but it’s been so great to start / end every day with a walk this week.
The Aro is a piece of home tech that helps you put your phone away and be present. Brilliant idea.

If I were to only read one biography on Alan Turing, what would you recommend it be? ?
A photograph from college back when my work was a bit more experimental.
Not sure if I’ll be able to keep up with posting a photo a day in May, but here’s an impromptu one from a cloudy walk I took my oldest and youngest on yesterday at the zoo.
We made the switch to a ventless dryer when we redid our laundry room last year. I now get what the Europeans see in them. It works great and saved the hassle / expense of drilling a vent out of our old brick siding.
My wife did an amazing job with the wallpaper here too!
This week I finished The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together. I consumed the majority of the chapters via audiobook while driving across the country which I think made it even more impactful. ?
I’ve explained over Zoom to my students the difference between CSS Grid and Flexbox so many times over the last year that at this point my wife has my spiel memorized.
Millennial parenting achievement, I have successfully convinced my kids that Transatlanticism is “New Year’s Music”.
Oh how I have missed this.
My two little ghosts
My mom and brother got their 1st doses of the vaccine today. I have mine scheduled for 11 days from now. The weather this weekend is shaping up to be fantastic. The world is starting to look a little brighter. Grateful.
I’m going to give WP Background Processing a go this afternoon. Anyone have experience with it?
Our dogs always come back a shade lighter from the groomer from all the dirt that gets washed out. ?
