Never far from the ocean. Man of many interests. #LFC #WelshRugby Anthropology, Archaeology, History, Maps, Music, Planning and Design, Transit, Native Plants, Kayaking…
Got out for a lovely afternoon at Sammammish Animal Sanctuary with our daughter today. Miniature Shetland ponies, goats, llamas, and a highland coo named Frilly! Happy Saturday folks.

I would love to see the data on assumed access efficiency for the long term Link service map.
It seems like a bidirectional circle line around Lake Washington transected by linear routes (Everett to Tacoma, Ballard to Redmond, West Seattle to Issaquah) would require less transfers for most riders.

No conflict here either.

Macca’s bacca! Now all we need is Ali healthy. I have a feeling about this XI. #UTFR #LFC #YNWA

Let’s make it a Mo-vember to remember!
He needs it. We need it. Liverpool forever. #LFC #YNWA

What ever happened to this kit option? It was everywhere online when the LFCxAdidas partnership was first announced.

It’s match day, fam!

A gray, windy, and wet Saturday in Seattle, but I’m smiling. Mid-day on a Saturday means I can finally go meet up with my local OLSC for a match.

There’s nothing better than watching #LFC with fellow fans. #YNWA

It’s too good to ever let it go away.

It makes we think of Natalie Portman in Garden State

My daughters Girl Scout troop bridged on Friday, had their first camping overnight with only the troop leaders as chaperones last night, and everybody was in a great mood for pickup this morning.

Enjoy and appreciate the good things as they come.

Aurora Ave N could fully look like this instead, with the right political will.
I cannot wait for @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social to be our mayor!

Continuing my #gardensky sharing. We got a decent harvest of guajillos out of our greenhouse this year! Here’s the before and after of homegrown peppers becoming my first homemade salsa.

It’s not the most impressive harvest I’ve had in recent years, but it’s always fun to come in from the garden with some real produce, especially volunteer potatoes.

We went to their showroom last week and really liked this one.

I’m disappointed by the long sleeves’ attachment by Adidas. The matching green undershirt sleeves with the shortsleeved kit looked way better. Regardless, our players looked 🔥🔥🔥 out there.

It’s September 1st and the weather has immediately begun to cool in Seattle. I can finally start really cooking new experiments indoors again.

That means it’s meat pie night!

Daylight Savings Time is one of humanity’s stupidest inventions. Let it end, and let it never come back again.

We’re doing air-dry clay therapy with my father-in-law at the skilled nursing facility this evening. I’m pretty proud of this little guy.

My wife and I followed the British and Irish Lions rugby tour to Australia in 2013, for our 5th wedding anniversary. It was amazing!
