I was on the road at 6am. Was home by 4:15pm. I think I have fallen in love with road trip vacations again. Blue was sooo happy to get home!

Can anyone tell me why Substack is serving me election denialism content from untrusted sources that I don’t follow?
Odd that “John Oliver” isn’t *that* John Oliver. Feels like someone masquerading as a trusted media figure to those who aren’t looking carefully.
Stay vigilant.

Had a pretty good whisky day the other day. A friend who was in Scotland picked this up for me. Pretty interesting bottle! More sherry influence than the normal Oban distillate.

Took the ferry across the sound and drove up to Port Townsend & Fort Warden today! Had an excellent time. Also, I don’t even know how they got the ice cream to stack like that!

12 years ago today I moderated a panel with Peter Clines (@peterclines.bsky.social) at Booktopia Bellingham. What a fantastic conversation with a seriously excellent person! I’m so excited to read his next book, God’s Junk Drawer.

Bob’s Lake City Liquor was a great spot to chat spirits with people who wanted you to get the right bottle for you. It closed a few years ago and I felt the loss to our community. Today I learned that Bob passed unexpectedly and I feel that loss all over again.
RIP Bob. 🥃
