    June 5, 2022. This is the flower of a pitcher plant. These plants are more well known for their leaves, which curl into a pitcher shape and trap insects for food. The flower, though, is something quite unique. They were about today in the Glengarry For...

    June 4, 2022. This is some wall art along Richmond Road. I needed to pick up my new warmer sleeping bag and also to rest a bit so we went for a walk through the Ottawa neighborhood of Westboro today. https://flic.kr/p/2npSSmT

    June 4, 2022
    June 3, 2022. This is a corner about 10 km south of Casselman and a place where I frequently stop for a short break and some water. It was a late afternoon ride after work (maybe too late because it interferes with sleep, but it's hard to resist a warm...

    June 4, 2022
    June 2, 2022. This is displayed outside a farm near St. Rose, partway on the route to St. Isadore. It was a nice day and the Blue Jays were playing an afternoon 'getaway day' game, so I booked off a little early and rode 40 km in a nice comfortable rid...

    June 1, 2022. Our old coffee machine with all the electronics died a mysterious death by error code. This new machine has minimal electronics and brews a delicious cup of coffee. I spent some time trying to rework my data literacy stuff into a paper, b...

    June 4, 2022
    TED Radio Hour & ScottLo “What you put into the course is what you get out of it.” I have heard this phrase a couple times from different people regarding this course and I definitely think it is true. With ScottLo on the LoDown and his review of previous DS106 students work, it became more […]

    May 31, 2022
    As promised in my last post, I am writing a post about the tech specs as to how everything comes together on my desk. Working from home again meant I needed to come up with a dedicated space to work, and moving into a new space allowed Brandon and I to think through the perfect […]

    Tractor Through the Trees

    May 31, 2022
    May 31, 2022. This is a tractor spotted through a gap in the trees about a mile south of Casselman. I had to vary my usual route since part of my regular route is under (much needed) construction (I hope they repave it, and don't just leave it as grave...

    May 31, 2022
    May 30, 2022. This is a little tiny wasp's nest in our crabapple tree in the back yard. We haven't seen any actual wasps around it yet. It's nice to see the tree doing well this spring. Today was a day of puttering and paperwork, trying to get things i...

    Chapter 2: Will We Make It?

    May 29, 2022
    Overall Week rating: 7/10 because assignments were completed, there were strides made, but still room for improvement. I started out the work week, Monday, with setting up all my post sites. This allowed for me to be able to make sure all had the appropriate tags, categories, etc. and I would definitely recommend because it […]

    Design Blitz Fail

    | design, designblitz, ds106, Syndicated
    May 29, 2022
    In my time as a low level interior designer, I have come across MANY design fails. With small spaces such as apartments or bedrooms, it is really important to take these into consideration to make the overall look better. I also attend a graduation this weekend that had design elements in it as well. The […]

    May 28, 2022. This is just a random bit of forest under water as seen from the road back from Avonmore. I did my standard 50km loop today, but had a much larger lunch than intended at Rock'n Ronda's restaurant so was a bit slow on the return leg. I als...

    May 27, 2022. We have new seasons tickets - row 27 on the 50 yard line, pretty much perfect. With my new camera I can get excellent photos (and it's not a 'professional' camera so I can get it into the stadium). Today was the first preseason game so it...

    May 26, 2022. These purple flowers - not sure what they are - fill the lawn in the shade of the cedar hedge beside the house. Not quite ready to get back out just yet - especially with a brand new expedition from No Man's Sky being released. https://fl...

    May 25, 2022. This dogwood is taking over the deck (and I like it). Nice neat back yards are for other people. It's taking me a few days to get back into things after the weekend ride. I took my wheel into the bike shop and will get it back in a week. ...

    THE CANON WAS VIGNELLI

    | Syndicated, Thoughts & Ideas, Vignelli
    May 28, 2022
    Massimo Vignelli created Helvetica, originally Neue Haas Grotesk. Yes, the font! I know everything is made by someone, but why did I assume that fonts were just made by computers? When technically all the information that came and are inserted into computers are from people’s minds. I read the text in our week assignment regarding […]
