Not all heroes wear capes, but fuzzy bathrobes instead. @scottw-pdx.bsky.social heard some commotion early this morning and found a pack of coyotes surrounding a bush across the street. He shoo'd them away and found a group of terrified baby raccoons hiding in the bush.

Dear Apple, Hiding the active call in the corner is not a feature anybody wanted — especially those of us who say our true opinions about the caller after we think the call is ended.

Full loop on a brisk morning.

They ran out of the apple French toast special, but apparently I threw such a fit that they made a strawberry French toast special for me.

I dragged @scottw-pdx.bsky.social to IKEA for meatballs. We were shocked to discover the wicker baskets we have in our shelves are now THIRTY DOLLARS each. There's no way we paid that. I found the old receipt in our IKEA account and the last set we bought were $14.99 each. #Trumpflation

We finally took the annual Feral Cat Coalition / Bird Alliance Catio Tour. We started late, so didn’t get to as many as we planned, but the catios we saw were impressive. Henri-Etta probably wont be thrilled if we cage him in, but the neighborhood cats and bids will appreciate it. #catiotourpdx

While waiting for a ride I thought a black kitty like our Henri-Etta was mincing towards me for scratches and pets — but discovered it was just a black liquor store bag after I took my sunglasses off. #blackcat

Well it was a nice bike ride until the flat tire. Waiting for Babe to rescue me on Portland’s beautiful Avenue of Roses.

Today we decided on a name for our newish car. After experiencing a few false "pre-collision" alerts about parked cars and power poles, we have christened the Ford "Hyacinth". @scottw-pdx.bsky.social #KeepingUpAppearances

Usual loop on a muggy morning. Disturbingly another bicyclist tried to make friendly conversation with me. #strangerdanger

I did the #BridgePedal for the first time in many years. Fortunately they left out the St Johns Bridge which I don’t think I could have done.

Clackistan loop — but cheated and took the MAX home again.
