November 17, 2024. We went to a nature preserve in Ottawa called Mud Lake and took photos of birds and squirrels, including this one. https://flic.kr/p/2quQFyn
October 31, 2024. The banks of the Sava River in Sisak, Croatia, near the triangular fort where the battle of Sisak was fought between the Austrians and the Ottomans in 1593. Sisak is smallish, about 40,000 people, and I spent the day wandering around...
October 30, 2024. I took the train for what turn out to be a three hour trip to Ljubljana, Slovenia. I had all day to explore the city in alternative fog and sunshine. https://flic.kr/p/2qs7H1D
September 28, 2024. Sljeme is a mountain peak just north of Zagreb, and after the conference ended today I took a tram, bus and cable car to get to the top. This resulted in a lot of up-and-down hiking, but he peak was shrouded in mist and it was cert...
October 21, 2024. Worked from the home office today mostly fixing bugs in gRSShopper. I need it functioning properly because I'll be on the road again soon. https://flic.kr/p/2qpgCfE
October 20, 2024. Today's walk was through Pine Grove Forest in Ottawa to enjoy the fall colours. It also included a trip to Costco and the Metro. https://flic.kr/p/2qp1tK8
October 19, 2024. Went out for a short bike ride today on a beautiful fall day. This is the local harvest, locally called 'cow corn'. As cattle feed, it supports the eastern Ontario dairy industry. Watching the football game as I upload this; it is no...
October 18, 2024. On the way home from Mont Tremblant we stopped to see the Sentir des cimes, a skywalk and forest tower. The season was perfect with brightly coloured leaves and nice fall weather. Along the way there were birds, and this was one. htt...
October 17, 2024. Hiking near the top of Mont Tremblant. My foot won't allow me to climb it or descend, but I did manage 100 meters of ascent. https://flic.kr/p/2qoo2Lp
October 13, 2024. Stairway to an abandoned building on Rue Bleury in Montreal. We're here for the football game tomorrow (go RedBlacks!) and are driving up to Tremblant for a short vacation right after. I've missed maybe a month of daily photos but wh...
September 17, 2024. My teeth, up close. Started today productively, meeting and work, but then was at the dentist to get a post for a dental implant. Took a couple tries (ack) but I survived. https://flic.kr/p/2qh5Yuz
September 14, 2024. Long bike ride today; this was right near the end, in evening. Visited both Dunvegan and Maxville. So warm! https://flic.kr/p/2qgCjQo
September 13, 2024. Friday. Beautiful warm day, so after a productive day coding I went for a bike ride. Must keep descriptions short or IFTTT fails. https://flic.kr/p/2qgErwj
September 11, 2024. The moss-covered apple tree trunk outside my office building in the city. It was the first of three office days this week, a result of the uninformed and arbitrary decision made to reduce work-from-home. Traffic was awful and waste...
September 10, 2024. Here's a serving of my curry with green onions and, buried under the spicy goodness, a portion of Atlantic Canada salmon. So delicious! A second day of working on a Mastodon client from the home office. https://flic.kr/p/2qga7BY
September 9, 2024. Each week we get a new batch of vegetables and that prompts me to cook them up as a spicy curry. Here's this weeks' sweet potato and carrot curry. Worked from home today, building a simple Mastodon client. https://flic.kr/p/2qga4BK
September 9, 2024. It was fungus day on our weekly forest walk. We went out to Rogers Pond in Marlborough Forest in rural south-west Ottawa. Very few animals or birds. The light was low and I wasn't really set up for dark fungus pics. Evening was spen...
September 7, 2024. The RedBlacks played the Argos this afternoon. A rare day game, it could have been fantastic, but is was cold and poured rain for pretty much the entire game. Nice to see a convincing win, though. Got home, went to sleep right away....
September 6, 2024. I wanted to share a photo from the Jimmy Carr and Jim Jeffries show tonight, but all I'm allowed to show is this. The show was great but it would have been nice to have something more to remember it by. The evening followed a great ...
September 4, 2024. This rose is found in the parking lot by the Costco where I went for lunch. Office day, which I spent heads-down all day writing 'Why Free Learning Needs Free Artificial Intelligence'. https://flic.kr/p/2qeQt9e
September 3, 2024. Another nightstand photo. That's what we get when I have a busy day. Today I wrote a script that allows me to post from OLDaily into BlueSky. Pretty happy about that - in the past, it would have taken me a week. https://flic.kr/p/2q...
September 2, 2024. Went out for a nice 63 km ride today that included a jaunt through this, the Larose Forest (which is in my mind always referred to as the Emerald Forest). Cool with a strong northwest breeze. Watching football this evening. https://...
September 1, 2024. We went for our weekly hike to South March highlands in Ottawa's west end today. It was a bit cool and a bit breezy, but nice after the earlier rains. Here's the full album https://flic.kr/p/2qdFdgZ
August 31, 2024. The light on my bedstand, the last light I turn off every day. Rainy day today, but I finished something I've been working evenings and weekends on for most of the summer, a set of five articles to join a sixth I wrote in the spring. ...
August 30, 2024. The selection of Centrum vitamins for women at the Gloucester Costco . I was searching for Centrum Caltrate, not realizing that these are two separate products. A work-in-office day today, and therefore not that productive, though I d...
August 29, 2024. Photo from my afternoon bike ride after work. Much more productive day today, got quite a bit of writing done, a couple of forms filled out, and my proper allotment of exercise. https://flic.kr/p/2qdcXCB
August 28, 2024. The flow in the basement. With my feet. No meetings today. I tried to get some work done but wasn't very productive. I did however make a nice curry for supper. https://flic.kr/p/2qdbE67
