Taking full advantage of the warm days of the waning season, I stripped the doors and top off the Jeep and even put down the windshield for a ride around town.

I found an old saddle on the side of the road with a free sign on it. So of course I took it home and restored it. I had exactly the right tools on hand for the job owing to my baseball glove restoration hobby.

I spotted this back-to-school shopping with one of my teenagers at Hollister in the mall. It's a bit weird seeing my literal college experience sold as a "cool" item some decades on! Class of '97!

We stumbled upon this post apocalyptic scene at the local mall. Apparently there was gas leak and a fire. Luckily the two occupant who were asleep in the cab at the time escaped unharmed.

The late blooming clematis is coming on strong!

I spent a week in Lisbon, Portugal on work.
