The first rule of junk drawer is when you finally find something in it that will work perfectly in a project is to wonder if that's the best use of it after all of these years.

The Cheshire Rail Trail goes from Keene, NH to Bellows Falls, VT but it looks faint and elusive the further you get from Keene. I'm checking out someone’s Street View, wondering if the family can/would try it, then I pan the camera down to see who’s riding it. ";^)
Shot in 2020, I wonder if the trail has had much work since?

view of person making street view: a dad with two little kids in the back of his bike, one in bright green helmet the other pink
a section of trail with tree across it, the bike sits nearby as if Dad had everyone get off while he carried it across or around
looks like everyone’s heading back to bike after the tree portage section

No aurora, but interesting result when wife turned on light in another room while I was trying longer exposure through a window as a test.

Total cloud cover when I went to bed, no aurora for me last night. Here’s a view of the sun just now and the big spot causing all of the fuss. Desaturated to remove lens aberration colors.

Archeologists, studying the origins of cardboard boxes, have found convincing evidence of early and continued ritual use by Felis catus.

Hanging out with the dog. He’s doing better, at least standing and walking, but still some cognitive or visual issues at times. This morning he came into office and when I followed him out he walked behind door, into wedge with wall, instead of out the door. Then again, when we got outside he picked up the smell of last night’s bear and started tracking right away.

Hiked part of the AT today to Holts Ledges. Leaves aren’t fully out yet so views were better than usual.

Lots of ledges with sheer drop-offs, but unobstructed views
Side view of some ledge faces with mountain in background (Smarts? Cube?)
AT has new (to me) signs, this is an orange and black one saying “View”

The big (little) highlight though were all of the flowers. Is a thing? Holts was covered in tiny blossoms.

Early Saxifrage blooms, according to the phone, nestled in rocks and moss
Yellow trout lily and Virginia Springbeauty

Got the latest None of the previous vaccines have bothered me but this one, Moderna, has thrown me for a loop. Ugh.

Dunno if that's my age, the vaccine itself, coincidence ...

@GraniteGeek Is that the one out for 65 and older?

Noticed something slightly off about the bird feeder this morning. Followed a faintly visible “bent grass" path into the woods, through a muddier section and right over a low point in our notably lame wire fence (to keep dog/chickens in) to find some faint, fresh tracks.
It's been years since a bear has visited and this seems half hearted, maybe because we only have a little bit in the feeder at any point? It didn't have any interest in garbage cans or the nearby chicken coop.

I'm outside, piecing together feeder damage clues, and a Pileated woodpecker flew across the yard and landed on a tree. Madly tried to take photos, as always, and have two “vaguely bird-like, mostly branches” results.

Formal wear at the feeder.

@SQLAllFather First one this year. Lady at rail trail the other day said she’d seen a Baltimore Oriole, but I don't think they hang out in our neighborhood.

In trail news …

Sign near spot of little house: K To the owner of the fairy house, Thank you for caring about Mink Brook, and wanting to share a little joy and whimsy with the community! We have moved your fairy house to the north side of the brook, just east of the bridge, in an area we are temporarily reserving for these types of projects as we consider their place on the property. Help us keep this side of the brook in as natural a state as possible by practicing Leave No Trace principles.

@GraniteGeek on drive over the radio was playing Dr Feel Good, completely different vibe.

Part of the trail went by a substation. They always have such fascinating and mysterious equipment. Plus, their signs are on point.

Hard to pick a trail running route this morning so I just made one up around a couple trail systems and shortcuts.

jerzone,
@jerzone@techhub.social avatar

One of the shortcuts went straight uphill to a residential area, steep enough that apparently someone thought it warranted ropes the whole way.

You know that thing when you scream down a hill on your mountain bike with a big stupid smile on your face and flies in your teeth, and you slow down at the bottom and grind to a halt in deeper than expected mud….with your foot still clipped in to the pedal🙄

@officehippy not really, please elucidate! 🤣

Update on our lone chicken: she's found a way to escape fence (and return), she's made a dirt bath outside my office window, she just realized it's pouring rain and could someone THINK ABOUT THE POOR CHICKEN, HELP??!!
