Just a post to show off the Airship Pirate ribbon @limako made for me. Also shown: my lanyard: handwoven silk made by @jackieLbrewer.

I feel so welcome!

I’m checked into my room at the Hyatt. Now waiting for @limako with a beer (and a very expensive Cuban sandwich on the way).


Looks like I’ll be facing backward all the way to Chicago. Nearly on-time, though.

On my way to WorldCon! I’ve made it as far as Champaign’s Illinois Terminal.

This handsome fellow was hanging out right outside our front window, vibrating the tip of his tail as if he had a rattle. East-Central Illinois.

I nipped into Harvest Market this morning to pick up a couple of fillets of fjord trout, while Jackie baked a pie with the Zestar apples we bought a few days ago.
Fillets seasoned with just salt and pepper, and cooked in a cast iron skillet with a little coconut oil. Delicious!


Went to #CurtisOrchard with @jackieLbrewer and got a half peck of Zestar apples. I’ve not tried this variety before, but @limako speaks highly of them.
Very nice. They taste more like I remember apples tasting in my youth than modern varieties like Honey Crisp, Cosmic Crisp, or even Pink Lady.
