Midday. Late September. Hard to do nothing but Cheryl insists. Who am i to argue?

Lizard on a Florida screen — While chillin’ in the pool just now. There’s a ton on the outside of patio. A half-ton on the inside (with us).

Today, and everyday, is a great day for a great day.
dad

Today started great and ended great. There was never any doubt. Never is.

Two cans of bear spray — We have a bear but no bear spray in Orlando.

Never envisioned worrying about walking out my door and encountering a bear.
dad

Been in Florida 40 years. Have never seen a bear, nor heard friends talk about seeing a bear.

Once a week for the past month, our cameras have captured a bear at our home.

U-Haul storage closet with stuff in it — We planned our longest visit ever for 2023. An unexpected retina detachment (caught early on August 14), and another unexpected, second, eye surgery September 14. Photo: all our supplies were waiting in the rental van. Cheryl stored them in a rental closet. See you in 2024.

Long line of planes at Denver — In real time, Cheryl is sharing an incredibly long line of Denver’s taxiing planes. Not often you are in this position with your iPhone.

So grateful for the structure and processes we currently have in place.
dad

This first-time storage unit feels like an overdue idea.

Time will tell.

30-second video: First time for everything.

i love writing five daily blogs.
dad

Note: Intentionally didn’t add “differently-themed”.

Why?

Because it’s the first time. There’s a first time for everything. Right?

14-second video: Don’t say what you don’t mean. And vice versa.

20-second video: Final line in this trailer’s opening clip. “You looked like you had it figured.”

12-second video: The wilderness, the true wilderness, is nicknamed “the wild”. Maybe it could also be nicknamed “the lawless”.

4-second video: No one in 2023 can imagine “no man’s land”. Exception being astronauts.

5-second video: Showtime…

i used to wish for boredom. Careful what you wish for. i never said how much.
dad

An hour or maybe a half day of boredom. Maybe, who knows, an entire weekend.

But five weeks?

Not in a million years.

Note: This current boredom is exacerbated by not being able to move.
