Enjoying lunch over in Jersey City with part of my tribe before subjecting ourselves to the torments cooked up by Delta.
We’re going to have to overnight in ATL because the 2pm flight (EWR-ATL) kept getting delayed and pushed so that I will not make a 9:30 PM connection home from Atlanta

Stopped in for a little bit at the Gulf Coast Equality Fest. It was nice to see people out enjoying a pleasant fall day.
Lots of puppies. The two legged and four legged kind.
The highlight for me was meeting a pair of leather dykes of a certain age.

This summer I let the beds in the front of my house go to garbage and grow wild.
I was traveling a lot and did not pull seasonal plants out nor reset with summer annuals
Nature rewarded me anyway with a gorgeous display of golden rod (Solidago) ageratum houstonianum
Plants gone wild.

Back home from bootblacking with Andrew Charles McDiarmid for the Mr Third Coast Leather weekend in Houston.
Met fantastic people.
I am thankful for the generosity of the Misfits, the Ripcord, Drew, who allowed me to take part in a great event

Event drop, my ass.
I still have to clear the aftermath from 5 days in Augusta.
Once laundry is washed/folded, leather gar is cleaned/hung up, & the travel gear is sorted/repacked for Houston/Mr 3rd Coast contest Saturday, THEN all the feels can come out to play.

Daddy Boot Bear has the car charged, loaded, & is ready to head to Augusta for Fist Fest weekend tomorrow.
It'll be great to see buddies and meet new ones.
There's a fair bit of my tribe will be there.
IGNORE any salacious tales that may get out there.
I'm an innocent bystander. I'm sticking to that

An Indian restaurant opened in a former Wendy’s location here.
The food is outstanding.
The menu is small, as it should be.
They do a few fusion dishes, such as chicken vindaloo pizza & such.
The cauliflower is a-maz-ing.
I hope it makes it since we don’t have many Indian options

Headed to New Orleans to be social and see what mischief I can find. I’ll probably swing by the Phoenix, which increases the odds of misbehavior.
I hope your Saturday is good.

A pro tip
You DO NOT have to take off harnesses/vests/chaps/pants for cleaning/conditioning.
Taking care of those things can be a bit sensual, without crossing lines if you want.
