"No Kings" rally in Chicago. A peaceful, patriotic protest. Tens of thousands came out in downtown Chicago alone. Even more participated in suburban rallies.

Today my latest @matchfactoryeds.bsky.social book arrived--Recordings of Dead Languages. Poet Chad Heltzel gives us a look into natural history past and present and provides us with a record of disappearances (hmmm, sounds like an oxymoron) of species, languages, and knowledge in evocative imagery.

Lost Lake Pathway, in Michigan, has beautiful trails that go by water and through woods. I would have appreciated better signage. I got lost, although my hiking buddy ascertained where we were and how to get back to the car.

Today I stopped by Grove Gallery Evanston to see the latest art exhibition, "Radiance: Works about Light," curated by Sergio Gomez. I saw some fascinating works in various mediums, many by local artists. My friends Colette Wright Adams and Fletcher Hayes each had a painting in the show.

Last night I had a great time at the Epiphany Center for the Arts, where violinist Steve Gibons and guitarist Gabriel Datcu were in concert. They brought us jazz, Romanian gypsy music, some tango, and music from the Middle East. I couldn't stop smiling.
