Weekend in Ft. Lauderdale to watch InterMiami CF (and their MLSNextPro team). They don’t actually play in Miami (yet). Big iguanas! And Messi was suspended and didn’t play. Sigh. Got a cool hat courtesy of Publix, though.

Just realized the Vanfest I’m attending next weekend is right across the street from good old Space Coast Stadium in Viera. Memories!

The replacement “walls” are being installed on my first floor where we lost all walls/garage doors in Helene and Milton. It’s felt so naked down there, so this is exciting! They’re kevlar shades we’ll leave down normally and raise if another surge is coming to let the water flow through.

I have a dilemma - I don’t know what to use the Skeets for. ‘Gram = surfing, foiling, vanlife. Xitter = baseball, news, weather. FB = friends, family, interest groups (more van stuff). Skeets? So far a mix of migrated baseball peeps, friends (with no sportsball interest), wonks.

Heads up for the Weather Community!

You can now find NOAA (@noaa.gov), NOAA Climate (@climate.noaa.gov) & NWS HQ (@nws.noaa.gov; still being set up) on Bluesky!

W00t!

Thank goodness this horrid year is about at a close. 2025 has got to be better. Right?

Custom tag that preceded unfortunate event. (Tag was on my big RV and is because I like camping by the water - RV was totaled by storm surge from Helene)

This tracks (and I’ve never seen his doodad). Cybertrucks are that ugly. And laughable.

For anyone who's dealing with the invalid handle glitch 👇🏻

Oh. Apparently I have an invalid handle now too. Huh.

<tap tap> Guess I’ll try this thingie again

…Route subject to change. And I must be nuts going from cool California coast temps to Florida in August.

T-minus 3 days and the vanlife adventure returns.

I can’t find my original avatar, so a pic of my dog will have to do for now.
