Very yummy, if I do say so myself.

Happy Valentine’s Day to my sweetie, @jackieLbrewer!

I’m not sure who ought to clear the sidewalk on Route 45 near Curtis, but somebody should. I’m fit enough to clamber over three-foot snow walls blocking crosswalks, but hundreds of my neighbors are not. @Applebees @cvspharmacy @SchnuckMarkets

I’m not sure who ought to clear the sidewalk on Curtis Road next to the U of I Solar Farm, but somebody should. I’m fit enough to trudge through the 12-inch snow, but hundreds of my neighbors are not. @UofIllinois

The pale green lichen and the dark green moss are what caught my eye, and then I thought, “Oh, this might be worthy of a #thicktrunktuesday post!”

I’m only rarely in shape to run 7+ miles, and even more rarely in shape to do it in the winter. 🏃🏻‍♂️

I spotted this toy in mile 4, and paused to get a photo.

Not going to bars or restaurants due to the pandemic has made it harder to try new beers.

Once again, today I bought a 4-pack purely on spec. This time I am very pleased with the Destihl Deadhead Extended Jam.

On Friday I did a 4 mile run. 🏃🏻‍♂️ Around half way, a Red-tailed Hawk flew low over my head and struck at prey in the lawn across the street. Then, before I could get my phone out, flew up into a tree. You can see it there: the bird-shaped smudge about 2/3rds up.

I write science fiction and fantasy stories.

I speak Esperanto, and use it to communicate internationally. Esperantistoj, legu mian esperantan hejmpaĝon.

For a while I taught Taiji.

For eleven years I was a senior writer at Wise Bread, writing about personal finance and frugality.

Before that I spent a quarter-century as a software engineer.
