Getting ready for our biggest Things 4 Good candle project! 110 lbs of soy wax. 144 vessels. 🤩 Lots of Wooden Wick boxes.
Just upgraded both of my Synology DS416 to DSM 7.0! Looks like a nice upgrade, with some configuration stuff to work through. ✨
We got our pottery shipment from Express Yourself Art Barn in Saugatuck today. When we finished our stuff was ready to go in the kiln. I love how everything turned out! 🤩
Peach season is a big deal in our house. 🍑

Great beer flight at Boomtown Brewery in Hibbing tonight. Blueberry Wheat, Orehouse IPA, Nitro Milkshake IPA, and Enoremous Double IPA.
It was cool to check out the giant mining equipment on exhibit by the Hull Rust Mine View.
We took in amazing views of the Hull Rust Mine today. Incredibly large open pit mine. Looks like a man-made Grand Canyon.
We saw this giant Iron Man statue in Chisholm, MN today and had to stop and check it out. I thought it was awesome! 85 feet high, making it the 4th tallest in the US. Weighs over 4 tons. Had to listen to Iron Man while there. 🤘
I liked this art from Clarence Morgan that we saw at MacRostie Art Center today. It reminded me a bit of the Squiggle project from ArtBlocks.
We won the “Rock’n the 50s” Escape Room at Itasca Historical Society in 40 minutes! Room 36!
Pokegama Lake framed by trees.
I dig this FLÎKR Fire that we got in Vermont. Great ambiance! 🔥
Severe tree damage on Southern edge of Pokegema Lake right next to my brothers place from storm a week ago.
Tried both the White and Sweet tasting wine flights at Unwined Up North in Grand Rapids tonight.
We had our very first quarterly company meeting with some of the team in-person, masked, at the Minneapolis Convention Center. It was great to see so many of #TeamSPS together for the first time in so long.
I am happy to back the Hack the Gap Book on Kickstarter! I’m looking forward to reading, and learning, from the stories of women and non-binary people in tech. Join me in supporting this project today!

After spending three nights on the Floathaus of Saugatuck I feel like I’m rocking on water even when I’m on completely solid footing.
