Views of the estate with the broken gazebo. It's for sale, folks. A fixer upper in a prime location!

White two story southern estate style mansion with four columns at the entrance. First floor windows and doors are boarded up. Second floor balcony screen falling apart and ivy overtaking it.

Been hearing a new-to-me, distinct and loud bird song. Finally fired up my Merlin Bird ID ap and lo, it's a Carolina Wren. In South Carolina. What are the odds?

The view out the back window of our townhouse B&B is ... intriguing? Granted a major hurricane came through here 2 years ago.

On a road trip/family visit and so no time to wallow in TV news political, local, national, world, or otherwise. Being detached if only temporarily is kinda refreshing. Maybe humanity *can* survive without my attention for a few days? 🤔

Some day maybe someone will explain how farm owners expected their crops to be harvested after they'd scared away the laborers willing to do that work.

Sitting outside shortly after sunset. Heard and saw rustling in my veggie patches. Sure enough a small deer was probing the tomato and corn plants. Walked several feet toward me, stared, left. I clumsy-fiddled with my cell to try for a proof-of-deer photo. All I got was this grainy Bigfootish pic.

View down the alley of a small deer in the distance walking away. Nextdoor neighbor's garage is on the left. A couple of my cornstalks and coneflowers in the foreground.

Another voice sez the big AI companies are only now asking the government for help (regulation) because they realize there's no return on investment (no customers) for this expensive 'thing' they're developing. The plot thickens. 🤔

This evening's Supreme Court ruling aside, I regret that I won't trust the USPS with my mail-in ballot this year as I have since the start of covid. I'll take it to a government building drop-off or turn it in unopened to my polling place and vote in person.

Chris Hayes on AI threat went straight to the 2001: A Space Odessey scene where computer HAL refuses an order from human Dave. "I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that. ... That's something I cannot allow to happen." Perfect illustration.

I was born 8 years after the end of WW2. It was many years after before awareness of what that was began to take hold for me. Be open minded with youngers for whom today is history book stuff.

Seriously, just turn Trump's failed Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool into a skateboard park to attract kids there where maybe they'll engage in a bit of the history surrounding the space. At least until a more responsible president comes along. FFS

Gorillaz's "Clint Eastwood" came out in 2001. The downbeat rhythm, ironically with lyrics of perseverance, plus the accompanying animation in which a threat is ultimately resisted, hit all the right feelings for me that fall and winter. Fun fact: That was the first CD I ever purchased. This is why.

Next to the corn that I planted there's emerged a very tall volunteer corn stalk with rosy pink corn cob silks instead of the golden yellow color I'm used to seeing. I've done next to nothing to nurture this one and yet by all appearances it's thriving. 🤷‍♂️
