We celebrated the Superb Owl by making owl art, looking up owl facts, and watching YouTube videos of owls (and that amazing episode of WWDITS). I’m so grateful my kids aren’t too adult for shenanigans. #superbowl

Still getting a feel for this app while I download my pics from Meta platforms onto an external hard drive. Then it’s good riddance! Tips for using this app, staying connected to local happenings, and finding other apps to follow creators I like appreciated! Oh, and here’s me flying a kite…
