Picked up this Zeiss Ikon Super Ikonta B 6x6cm camera. I have some Porta 400 to try with it. Seems to be in pretty good shape, so I’m interested to see how it goes.

We only had one group come by for trick-or-treat last night. It’s never super busy on our street for Halloween, but last night was super quiet.

I haven’t been playing sousaphone much the last few months, but I’m picking it back up again and have started to work on some exercises. I’m wanting to play sousaphone at Tuba Christmas this year, after playing euphonium the previous two years.

Feels weird to not have Solar or Lower Decks in production anymore. So proud of what we accomplished on both shows in very different ways. Thank you to everyone on both productions, and to all the fans who tuned in!!

Some new books arrived this week! Looking forward to reading the sequel to “Witch King” next!
The “Lower Decks” graphic novel looks fun, I’m still sad that the series wrapped up.

Some photos from yesterday's Open Cup Final between Austin FC and Nashville SC. It was an exciting day and game. Very sad that Austin FC did not end up winning, but it was a pretty cool journey through the Open Cup tournament with some amazing away wins.

Photos from the SAFE Alliance "Touch a Truck" fundraiser at Q2 today. La Murga de Austin had a booth where attendees could play our drums, and we played two sets at the stadium. Second year that we've done this, and it's so much fun.
