Ordered a bag of Nouns Coffee. Never would have guessed that to come out of Nouns DAO. ⌐◨-◨
Serene and pretty.
Time for a sunset fire on Pokegama Lake.
Just registered thingelstad.⌐◨-◨ on Noun Name Service. Cool to see that Food Noun 3 already shows my “nounish” name.
It was a perfect day for a 9.2 mile kayak down the Mississippi from Grand Rapids.
We were going with the current so you could paddle as much as you wished, and then take a break and still float right down the river.
Visiting my brother and family at their place. Super nice day on Pokegama Lake.
Delightful breakfast of delicious crepes in the yurt at Hotel Rapids this morning.
The Decemberists “Rise From the Bunkers” tour was great at Surly Brewing Festival Field tonight. Their music is so delightful. 🎶❤️
Zinnias in bloom.
My Mom is helping Mazie get the Tomatoes under control. Only 4 plants but they have all gone MASSIVE! 🍅
Need to declare war on these horrible Beatles going to town on our strawberries! 😲
We had a great time at the MLS All-Star v Liga MX All-Star game tonight at Allianz Field.
What a day! Started with an early wake up in Reykjavik finishing our Iceland trip and ended with a OneRepublic show in St. Paul!
Great OneRepublic show tonight! Set list was just right and hit all the favorites. Tyler’s favorite band. 🎶
Need to Breath opening for OneRepublic tonight at XcelEnergy Center. I hadn’t heard their music before. They put on a really good pre-show. 🎶

Nice Icelandic day, a little misty in afternoon, no wind.
Our final full day of this epic Iceland 2022 trip! To frame the day, imagine that each of us had a few things on our list that we wanted to get done before we finished our trip. The net of that is a lot of walking around, various tasks, and a wide variety of things!
