Non-Flashlight Things You Enjoyed Doing Today

That’s a great looking box ! :+1:

A nice, happy puppy returned narrative:

Half an hour ago, I was on my first leg of my daily six mile walk, a nice elderly gentleman at 223 Chestnut approached me to ask me if I had seen his lost tan short hair puppy; he told me he is asking me because he knows I frequent this area daily. I said no, but I asked him for his phone number, because I walk this route frequently. I wrote his number on my hand, and I proceeded half a mile, and a group of people at Marios' house on Cederwood approached me from the other side of the street, with a small dog cradled in arm, and ask me if I know whose dog this is; they are asking me, because they know I frquent the area daily. I gave them the address and phone number, they get in their car to return the dog to its owners house.

Nice, happy feeling. :)

Went up mountain, spent a couple hours snowboarding, until my toes froze and my legs wore out… Note to self, use the toe warmer packs I have in the car, next time… no point saving them… LOL

its a beautiful sunny day

Me, I got sprung from the hospital after two days of infusions. Good for another 4 weeks.
A LOT depends on which nurse comes in to set the line. Last two days had the one who always has to fish for a vein.
And I have really easy to find and stick bigg’ens close to the surface. Can’t imaging what some of the little old ladies or gravitational(y) challenged people have to go through sometimes.
All the Best,
Jeff

I have a really nice Shrunken head.

Thanks for reminding me , I think it’s time to order another

Everyone had a day off from work today, so I spent a lovely two hours at my favorite intersection with my "Black Lives Matter" sign and listening to NPR.

Beside flashlights, collecting firewood and walking through our forests. Should be a few feet of snow on the ground by this time of year, but as

you can see from the pics taken today, nearly nothing.

Whoa! That is not the December I remember when I lived in Canada

and we're 5 hours inland from Vancouver in the snow belt. Top pic is at 600m elevation and last pic at 450m. Not used to the lawns being so green but no one's complaining!

I like the interior of BC. I was born in MB.

Well, now I know why you love NM. MB has some seriously brutal Winters and was the first place in Canada where I fully understood what bone chill really meant.

Many of the people I grew up with still live in MB, but several now go south for the winter; some second homes in AZ or RV parks. They are all spending winter in MB this year.

And Binghamton N.Y. got 40 inches this week.

We are in awe about that. My wife is from Binghamton. Friends there have been sending photos of the snow.

covid got me into advance coffee brewing.
I’ve been a 3 in 1 quick coffee drinker and never invested on beans and methods of brewing coffee myself.

Got myself a 500ml french press and a small 400ml chemex still in the mail. French press is so easy and so many ways to change the flavour.
I’ve yet to get my chemex so that’s another series of learning on how to pour over

I spent a few winters in Binghamton. Went to BCC. ET77.

We ran out of coffee, so I’m roasting up some more.

Nice to see another coffee guy!
I love French press coffee.
Give home roasting a try. I’ve been roasting my own coffee for about 6 or 7 years, (see above post).

I do mine in an 80’s hot air popcorn popper.
Give it a shot.

I have heard an air fryer works too, but the beans should be roasted in a single bean layer. I guess the air popper keeps the beans tumbling?
