Jackie and I both have the Maplewood Crushinator. Pretty good session ale.

I ordered a Sigi rapier back in February, but it won’t be ready for another month or two. But my HEMA group started a rapier training class last week! Fortunately, Kult of Athena had a fairly nice rapier in stock, so we put together a quick group order. Behold!

The periodic cicadas are not yet out in full force, but they’re out. Probably by tomorrow the woods around Homer Lake will be deafening with their calls.

Oh no! I’ve finished Revin’s Heart by @stevendbrewer! Whatever shall I do?

When she was new, I told my pup that she was puppish. Then I started adding that she was puptastic, and later that she was puppelicious. Just lately I’ve realized that she should be described as pupstanding in her field. 🐕

Not too long after we moved here, I saw an enormous snapping turtle, the size of a dinner plate. This is probably that same turtle, now the size of a serving platter.
Not a great picture, because Ashley was Very Interested in the turtle, and letting them play would have ended badly.

The first periodic cicada of the year. Or, you know, the decade-plus.
I dragged Jackie out to see it. Because—you know—who knows how long it might be before she has another chance to see one?
(Yes, that’s a joke.)

I often claim that I like hot weather, to the point that I don’t mind exercising in the heat. However, the best thing about hot weather is that it gives me an excuse to sit in the shade, read, and drink beer.

Time to sit on the patio with Revin’s Heart (by @stevendbrewer), a beer, and Ashley.

Putting my fencing mask on always pushes my glasses askew, and often mashes them up worse than that. So, a couple of weeks ago I ordered a pair of prescription goggles, and today they arrived!
They look okay:
And my mask just went on over my goggles no problem!
