Near Sacramento, CA, at 8:15 pm. Taken with a 3 second exposure on an iPhone.

I have my “real” rings and a “work” ring. The work ring changes periodically, but the main requirements are to be low-profile (so it doesn’t break through nitrile gloves), durable, and relatively inexpensive. My husband has lost 3 rings and I’ve given up on getting them replaced.

Jake and Elwood approve

Here’s some figs I picked this weekend

We have flocks of wild turkeys that roam campus and town. They are genuinely impressive.
