Went out back just now to water what's left of the potted plants on the back porch. There is one huge purple pansy in full bloom, with quite the expressive face! It's about the size of a silver dollar coin. #BloomScrolling #Flower #Pansy #Violet

Just took a fresh batch of vegan yogurt out of the instant pot. Made mostly with cashews, but with some oats added in. #vegetarian #vegan

A glass bowl filled with white yogurt sits on a blue counter top. The yogurt has just been cooked and the top has a texture like bread or a muffin.

Dawn and sunrise this morning, September 19th, from Buck Hill! Some interesting faint crepuscular rays showing on the first two photos. Kind of like faint aurora, these were difficult to see naked eye, but popped out in the phone screen. #BuckHill #BlueHills […] [Original post on c.im]

Today, Sep 14th, is the 25th anniversary of one of the more remarkable events to take place in the days following the September 11th terrorist attacks. I like to refer to it as Barbara Lee Day. A reminder of one of the most remarkable and courageous votes in recent US political history. "The […]

Got to see Max Creek at The Ocean Mist in RI on Friday night. Great night of music on the edge of the ocean! Arrived just after sunset, but caught a beautiful dusk along the beach before heading in. #MaxCreek #JamBand #Sunset #Dusk

One more post from my Pittsburgh trip. I was geeking out on this one. This is the remaining section of the outfield wall of Forbes Field. This was the site of one of the greatest World Series games ever played when the Pirates shocked the Yankees, winning an […] [Original post on hear-me.social]

Your humble narrator, posing in front of a sign that marks the location of the site of Forbes Field in Pittsburgh PA.

The sign reads...

FORBES FIELD

The first all steel and concrete ballpark in the nation. Forbes Field was home to the Pirates, site of four World Series in 1909, 1925, 1927, & 1960 and two All-Star games. Hosted the Homestead Grays, Steelers, and Pitt Panthers, as well as political rallies and boxing matches. Site of Bill Mazeroski's game seven, ninth inning, game winning, World Series winning home run on October 13, 1960 and Babe Ruth's last 3 home runs. Damaged by fire: razed 1972

After years of seeing it on TV, I finally stood at the tip of Point State Park at the confluence of the Three Rivers in downtown Pittsburgh PA. This is a panorama I took right from the tip showing all three rivers, two bridges, and the stadium where the Steelers play. #pittsburgh

For this photo, I am making an exception to my rule that the photo was taken on Buck Hill. Instead, Buck Hill and the Blue Hills range become the subject matter for this long distance 'looking back' shot that I recently took near the summit of Mount Watatic in Ashburham […] [Original post on c.im]
