Big Green Egg after a few hours.

Big Green Egg living this weekend. See these two in a few hours.

Grilling breakfast on Big Green Egg. Yum.

Alto’s Adventure. Awesome game. Great recommendation from MacSparky.

Great evening on the lake.

Paid for groceries with my watch. Neat!

… will be here this weekend.

We put a new dock in at the cabin. Love it.

No support for perspectives makes OmniFocus for Apple Watch useless when you defer v due date tasks. Hope that is added.

Apple Watch Arrived

I ordered my Apple Watch on launch day and opted for the stainless steel with link bracelet. It was back ordered 4-6 weeks and yesterday it arrived. Yes, I was pretty excited to play with it!

The initial impression of it was great. I’ve worn a Rolex GMT Master II for about 15 years. I opted for this Apple Watch because it was the most similar in look, weight and feel to that. The heft and feel of the Apple Watch holds every bit as much respect as the substantially more expensive Rolex. As something that feels good on my wrist and looks great it passes.

The rest of this experience is about software and that will take time to have opinions on. I’m going to note some of my hopes here to compare to in a future post.

  1. I hope to check my phone less.
  2. I’m very interested in the better health data.
  3. Eager to use OmniFocus on this; I’m a heavy user of this and having it on my wrist has great potential.
  4. Explore new experiences with apps and glances.

Will be fun to explore this new ecosystem.

Got a task into my OmniFocus inbox by talking to my watch. 🙂 Feels like magic! 🪄

Love the fit and finish on the stainless steel Apple Watch. Weight is good too.

UPS shows my Apple Watch should arrive tomorrow! 🤩

Bought myself a MN fishing license today. New territory.

9-point turn in ladder golf against Jim Bernard today. 🏆

Espresso, straight.

This Lily Robotics camera is amazing.

Got my ProtonMail account invite. Cool to see how they are bringing encryption to email in a better way.

Neat, MnPASS can’t get transponders because a part “has become obsolete and the supply is very low”. 😕
