We had a volunteer butternut squash pop up in our backyard so we decided to just let it go and now it's trying to evict us.
Also pictured: volunteer amaranth and a native serviceberry struggling to hang on in the middle.

Saw a deer with an ear tag and a very large radio collar at Fort Totten Metro station. I see deer there regularly, but I've never noticed one with any kind of tag before. Also not sure why that collar is so huge, wonder if it's recording data locally.

Peed in 24 states and 2 Canadian provinces, swam in 2 oceans, 2 great lakes and countless small lakes and streams, explored the Cascades, Rockies, and Appalachians, lived with us in 6 different homes, joined us on 20 backpacking trips and at least fifteen car camping trips. McGoo was a good one.

I'm so happy that I found this dumb little animation I made in the early pandemic soft lockdown. You're welcome and I'm sorry.

100/10 can't recommend enough. I loved A Visit From the Goon Squad, and assumed this could not possibly live up to that. I was wrong. I seriously don't have the words to properly praise this book and @egangoonsquad.bsky.social, now 100% cemented in place as my all time favorite.
