• The Keyboard I’ve Been Waiting For

    This is the keyboard I've wanted to put together for the longest time. Thanks to my quite generous brother-in-law, I finally got the keycaps I've wanted. I decided to use just the numbers from the number pad on the number row (rather than the keycaps with the extra glifs like @ and *) and now it has a super old-fashioned look. I get irrationally happy using this keyboard with my 11" iPad Pro. Thanks Dave!

  • Grace Hill in Prospect Park

    Grace Hill or Litchfield Villa
    Grace Hill mansion, now known as Litchfield Villa.

    So this is Grace Hill. It was built as a private home and is now part of Prospect Park. I love looking at it all year long, but come winter... I stare at it. #prospectpark

  • A Smaller Friendsgiving

    Melissa Johnson and Jen (sorry for the smoothing).

    We couldn’t make it to their Friendsgiving, but we needed to celebrate anyway. Although, now that I think about, we made them travel to Brooklyn rather than us traveling to them. Anyway, here’s to Melissa and Jason for being our friends for over 20 years. ❤️

    Jen who is as pretty and smart as ever.

    This might be the only way she’s dealt with me for 22 years. But I’ll take it. And another 22 years! ❤️ #anniversary

  • The Plant Finds a Way

    Manhattan building with a plant growing out of a chimney
    That's a plant growing out of a chimney and I liked it.

    My original comment about this was "Plant! #directive", but it didn't come out the way I wanted. Maybe the angle isn't wide enough? Maybe I needed to be higher? Anyway, I like to think plants will take over when we are all gone.

  • First and Last Day of School (7th and 10th Grade)

  • Sour Jugs

    Zane played Scrabble with us even though he didn't really want to.

    In one move, the boy came up with sour jugs. Very proud. #scrabble
