There’s been a change in the water flow of Upper Falls over the last couple of weeks. On road to the Cog Railway Base Station.
Back from a walk in the woods.
I’m enjoying posting my photos from the Sony ZV-1 which I use strictly for photography and not video even though Sony is promoting it for vlogging creators. I also have been experimenting with SOOC which may or may not be a wise move when using this 1 inch sensor camera. Incidentally the above link points to a Fujifim site but the advantages described still hold for other camera brands.
What a difference a few months make. Here at Echo Lake in New Hampshhire.
Holding up well.
Just finished watching the “The Forsyth Saga” on Netflix which is actual the second BBC version. I’m now curious about the earlier version from the’60s.
So much traffic and excitement during low tide.
I’m excited to be reading this biography about a mathematician I’d not heard of. I picked it up after seeing back cover recommendations by James Gleick, Freeman Dyson and Martin Gardner; some of my favorite writers over many years.

Cruise ship season is off and running as of (I think) a couple of weeks ago here in the Pacific North West.
Getting very tempted to try out Kagi search again after using up my free 100 searches evaluation a few months ago.
A great piece about what came after the Microsoft Doc file format. matduggan.com/markdown-…
Listening (and watching) Heather Cox Richardson interviewing Talking Points Memo folks - www.youtube.com/watch
An Edmonds kind of sunset.
What’s going wrong with social media web sites.
In praise of Flickr.
Just saw a cruise ship from Edmonds waterfront. I gather the cruise season has started again with possible Iran war related fare increases.
And here’s the article with fading words I am referring to.
He says in the link that “We want what we write to be human readable and machine readable, to live forever.” in writing on the site that fades to non existence a few words later. The irony is hard to miss. I get it that we are suppose to become a member and login to read the whole article but did the author not notice this disappearance of
