Walking on the north shore of Lake Superior (Gitchi-Gami to the indigenous Ojibwe) in Minnesota. I love to make impermanent arrangements of smooth stones - on this stroll I was excited by the rust-ish red ones, contrasting with whites. #stones #beachcombing #lakesuperior #grandmarais #minnesota

Brigid's Cross & headboard in "my" cottage (if only)! I stayed here in County Sligo for a month, with a dear friend (modern-day bard, really). True joy to start the days with strong coffee, porridge & long chats. Then out to weed gardens for a bit. Then, "Shall we go see another holy well?" #Brigid

It seems there was a dinner at the WH where a military choir serenaded the orange turd and his guest with a rendition of One Day More from Les Miserables, and the ignorant fools loved it. This is what happens when you don’t read. People mock you to your face. 😹

It sure did my GenX soul good to tune into #FireAid just as Nirvana launched their surprise set with Joan Jett, Kim Gordon, St. Vincent, & Violet Grohl. Really cool to watch Dave Grohl drumming & smiling like a proud dad behind his daughter. Now, Chili Peppers gettin spicy in their underpants...🤘🏼🌶️

Cheers to 20 years of Minnesota's own listener-supported music station, @thecurrent.org. Hey @barbabney.bsky.social, I'd love to hear "Don't Give Up" from Peter Gabriel & Kate Bush. Musical soul-balm. Thanks.✨

Melancholy today in my corner of the U.S. - & this timelessly beautiful song fits: "So needless to say, I'm odds and ends. But I'll be stumbling away, slowly learning that life is okay." Still an #optimist as we/I begin a #newchapter.
