Swamp walk was cut short… I made it to the wetlands… Twice. I had to turn my loop around at the 3/4 point because someone one the street where I walk was having an outdoor picnic party with about 20 people (maybe a dozen children and about 10 adults in view) having a good old time splashing and running around, drinking, generally socializing and apparently ignoring the fact that there is a seriously contagious disease happening to the planet right now. No masks in sight. As soon as I realized what was up, I did an about face and headed home. I really hope that those folks don’t hurt anyone as a result of carelessness or idiocy. I saw an old couple on the porch of one of the nearby homes that have a Confederate flag on the pole out front. (Three houses on the loop have that loathesome decor, sadly.) Non-vulgar creatures spotted were several turkey vultures, a grey and white cat, a grumpy little yard dog, 3 squirrels, and something splashing in the water… Turtle or fish likely. #walkies #bogsafari #covidiots #racistneighbors #welcometomaryland

Had my first ice cream bar since well before the quarantine. This is my frankenbuild interpretive dance of how that feels.

Man, it is so good. I could feel the chocolate fudge-coated vanilla goodness in ever capillary and nerve endings. I love me some ice cream on the easiest of days, and this week has been rough. Thank you to my wonderful wife for getting magnum bars along with our deliver of standards like , bread, cheese and veggies (which are all vital and delicious, too!) #Glyos #toyphotography #spymonkeycreations #cappyspace #Onelldesigns #Battletribes #megamerge #fallout power armor

so, ides of may – anniversary of my father’s death

He died at age 42, (when I was just turned 18), so that makes it what, 29 years ago?

1987, the year I graduated high school.

I don’t feel it so much these days, and only really think on it when I wonder what his thoughts on an item might be, or I’m reminded of fathers in general, like the holidays or whatnot.

It is strange to me to be older than my dad’s age at death. Comparisons I used to run simply don’t apply anymore.

I like to think I’m in a happier and more supportive place than he was in his 40s – but I also think that we are two very different people. I can’t imagine what it would’ve been like to be married with kids in my 20’s – a standard for his generation.
