#WeirdCarMastodon this is Chris Obert’s “Salty Santa Cruz finish” Fiat 124 sedan. It won an award at last year’s Concours d’Lemons. I’m told that it rusted top down and the underside and mechanicals are fine, but it looks like it could fall apart at any moment… Seen at Saturday’s annual Fiat America club picnic. We had a great time with friends we’ve known for 25yrs.

Tag 12 von #MeinCamino2025
Heute ging es ziemlich weit nach oben auf die Spitze des O Cebreiro. 28 km von Villafranca del Bierzo aus von 498 auf 1290 Meter Höhe. Belohnt wurde der heftig rinnende Schweiß mit grandiosen Aussichten. Am Abend hatten wir dann mit einem Philosophielehrer aus Korea eine schöne Pilgermesse in der Kirche Santa Maria la Real. Danach gab es leckeren Tintenfis…

Had a chance to fly with L, certified flight instructor at University of #NorthDakota. The Homme Dam on the Park River, and boulder piles in a field near Pisek, ND, in this glaciated terrain.
I rode 11.8 miles today. Went to Firefly Grove Park in Wauwatosa where they have a pump track and talked to two of the guys using it.
One really wanted me to try, and offered his bike as well, but after riding there uphill most of the way for 4 miles I said "I'll just watch you guys!" so I did.
I did ride on the smaller part of the track, and I can see the appeal, with the right bike.
Too little sleep, too hot, stagnant air with no breeze, and definitely rudely humid. When it became clear what a struggle this would be, I opted to run for HR zones instead. This included several walking breaks to bring my HR back down. My fitness needs the work.

3 years after car-free JFK/Overlook/Middle/MLK was made permanent, the signage for the non-JFK parts of the route is still so bad. No one but us nerds knows a car-free path to the beach even exists!
There should be a big banner on this overpass telling you to turn left then right. Instead there’s a tiny sign no one will see and even if you do it’s unclear (this isn’t “slow streets,” it’s car-free!)

Man, it took me a while to warm up to Costco, but it's really is one of the better corners of capitalism. They pay people fairly, sell only quality stuff, didn't disavow DEI, and aren't owned and run by hedge fund assholes.
It's amazing how nice it is not to have to evaluate every purchase. If it is there, it's usually because it has been proven to make customers happy and thus earned its shelf space.
And, no surprise, the CEO dogfoods himself.

I had ~1000 other art projects I would rather have worked on last night. But this one seemed more important. #nokings protests happening Saturday. There’s probably one near you.
May 2025 was the 2nd warmest on record globally, at 1.4°C above pre-industrial temperature. In 1980, the anomaly for May was still only around 0.5°C.

Long time followers will know that I enjoy a deep joke that optimistically three of you (certainly in #Canada ) might get.
Last night we did a self-entertaining bit where we drove out to Horseshoe Bay to have a drink at the Troller before returning to Deep Cove where–sadly–The Raven is closed and for sale. It was less than nine miles home at least.
As for stops in between, it seems that many…

Tag 11 von #MeinCamino2025
Endlich mal ein entspannter Tag. 31 km ohne große Höhenunterschiede von #Molinaseca nach Villafranca del Bierzo. Dort gibt es in heiligen Jakobusjahren beim Durchschreiten einer Gnadentüre Ablass für alle, die es aus Krankheitsgründen nicht mehr bis Santiago …
I put together this bumblebee made out of mini blocks a couple weekends ago. VERY tough with my big dumb hands. These bricks are TINY - see 3rd photo with quarter. Maybe the toughest thing I've ever built. Didn't give up! But if the flowers are that small, HOW HUGE IS THAT BEE?!? 😂

This grassy field has always been a beautiful buffer between the river and the train tracks that service the local waste management company that owns it. This time of year, wildflowers and butterflies are everywhere and it’s one of the highlights on this part of the greenway.
This week, I’ve noticed it’s suddenly begun to accumulate vintage fire and rescue vehicles. I don’t know what to make of it, but I hope it’s temporary.

TARRANT: It was outside the ship.

Hey #FOSS friends! 🚴♂️
I just got into biking again as an adult, and I’m loving it!
Now I’m on the hunt for a simple open source app to track how far I ride. Bonus points if it’s on GitHub, if not, at least F-Droid works. If there’s nothing bike-specific, I’m cool with any travel or hiking tracker too.
I use a Pixel 9a with GrapheneOS.
Any recs? Drop ’em here! 🙌

The groups move through caves. A number of mutoids surround a group of people in a cavern. Travis is in the background.]
