Broke the float for the coffee level gauge while cleaning the tank, but fortunately the MEL says the day can continue without it.

The AI bubble inevitably bursting is pretty much certain to cause a recession -- it's gone on too long to avoid that now. But I don't for a moment believe Trump understands that. This is a guy who thinks trade deficits mean we're giving money away for nothing.

Grew up in Michigan, went to college in upper Michigan, had lots of Minnesota relatives, and eventually settled in the Pacific Northwest. This is pretty accurate.

Picnic stop while exploring the Rim Drive on our scooter. The pointy object sticking above the trees is Mt. Thielsen, a heavily-eroded, extinct, shield volcano. The violent geology of the PNW is rarely quite so obvious as when you're sitting on the edge of a caldera, surrounded by other volcanos.

For the trip to Crater Lake, I decided to go with a classic color film that I used on dozens of trips in my childhood. Kodak Gold 200.

Low-stakes conspiracy theory: There's a guy out there who LOVES to draw swoopy lines, and his clients are business jet owners and motorhome manufacturers. You will pry his set of french curves out of his cold, dead hands.

"Under an Endless Grey Sky." Trans-Canada Highway, 2010. Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS, black and white edit with spot color. The SD1100 had a very noisy sensor and I often felt its shots worked better in black and white than they did in color.
