Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 08/10/2026My dad and his wife have been in town this week from Arizona and we went to the Great Lakes National Cemetery to see what needed to be done for his interment there, when the time comes and also visited with my grandparents. 010

Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 28/09/2026How about some camel pics from our trip to The Wilds in Ohio? It took all my efforts to not to try and touch them (more on that later).

Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Yesterday was the last of the Belle Isle Clean-Up Days. We hit the canals in the kayaks in the rain and had a good time. #BelleIsle #Detroit #Kayaking 030
Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Yesterday, we were at the Eastpointe Memorial Library for a lecture on the architect Albert Kahn. Very interesting. 010
Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I'm calling him Idaho, as I'm currently re-reading Dune. I did consider, the Beast Rabban, but he really doesn't give off Harkonnen vibes. (Duncan) Idaho, I like. 010
Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 16/09/2026A couple of recent backyard visitors. We have a few squirrels that are quite comfortable in our yard now that there isn't a dog to chase them away. One, is very friendly and smart. Today, after eating a few pecans, decided to take a rest on our patio furniture. #Squirrels #CarpenterBee 010

Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Almost everyday that I'm outside reading I get a visit from one of these little ones. They should be my spirit animal. 120

Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Just finished reading Frank Miller's Push The Wall and thoroughly enjoyed it. Parts bio, technique and advice. There was a lot there that I wasn't expecting, which is great. 010

Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 17/08/2026Thanks! Sometimes, I think that it might be too simple, but simple can be good. 011
Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 17/08/2026No, it isn't. Just an ink sketch, although it would be interesting to do as a linoleum print. And thanks! 110
Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 17/08/2026Inspired by the son of a friend who is learning to be a marine biologist, I give you a blue shark for #SundayFishSketch. He spent a week tagging them. tattooed-sky.blogspot.com/2026/08/blue... #SundayFishSketch #Sketches #BlueSharks 1256
Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Yesterday, we were out on the canals of Belle Isle once again for clean-up day. We had a different crew this time, but still a good one. We collected a ton of trash. On one hand, sad that there is so much of it, on the other, glad there were so many people who showed up to help out. Still fun. 130

Bruce Gerlach @brucegerlach.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Yesterday morning, we had a golf cart tour of the Detroit Zoo in the early hours. It was hot out, but the animals were active. I even had the opportunity to play with the rays and sharks again. Always fun. #DetroitZoo 031
