Updated July 2026
A running snapshot of what I'm into right now. Some of it useful, some... less so.
What life looks like as a new (mostly) empty-nester, which is a stranger adjustment than I expected. And what it really means to think alongside AI, which is a different thing than using it to go faster.
A mesh networking project. Small vibe-coded tools I run on a couple of old Mac minis (named Elaine and Peterman) that live in my basement. The git repo behind this page lives on Elaine, which is either resourceful or a single point of failure, depending on the day.
More shooting time lately, split between the X100VI and a Nikon Z5 II. And digging into the half I used to skip: processing in Lightroom, where knowing when to stop is turning out to be its own skill. Still doing 52 Frames, still posting the keepers to my gallery.
Patio dinners in heavy rotation, cooked on the Gozney pizza oven, the Weber, or the Blackstone (never all three at once, though not for lack of temptation). Still coffee and food in Old Town, easy hikes, and slow runs when it isn’t too hot.
World Cup soccer, mostly. A good excuse to sit still for two hours and call it a plan.
Just finished Artemis, by Andy Weir. Taking recommendations for whatever’s next.
Previously: what this page used to say.
This is a now page.
