Until the weather improves, bird photography is off the table.
I hope no one minds me posting pics about #fountainpens, #ink, and #paper.
If you know this pen, we're already friends.

Oh, immortal infancy, and innocency of the azure! Invisible winged creatures that frolic all round us! Sweet childhood of air and sky!

Some sons buy their dad a tie for the holidays.
My son? Gives me a replica of a Roman Centurion'S dagger.
I am fortunate. 🤘😊🤘

Have a happy Tuesday
Dont let mad people steal your joy
We can be concerned, act for reparation and justice
And still learn to live in our bodies maintaining calm rhythms
Calm your nervous system with breath✨️
You are held by something far greater than this one lost but very important world. Love🧡

How do I say "I'm GenX" without using those words?
One of my favorite comfort books is Stephen King's "'Salem's Lot." Another is "The Stand." 🤘😎🤘

**Rare Political Comment**
Stop calling them #ICE, start calling them "Brown Shirts."
If you don't know who the original brown shirts were, look it up.
