Programming Standing Up
After listening to a Science Friday report on the correlation between TV time and mortality, I’ve decided to stop sitting at my desk. I’ve propped up my keyboard and monitors with boxes. I’ve done it for a week now. My calves and shins are tired, but my legs don’t get fidgety, or fall asleep or…

Commute Map
I didn’t realize on Google Maps that I could drag the route around to modify the directions. That’s awesome!

Aldrich Ride — Very Pretty
I expanded my northbound commute to go up Aldrich on Wednesday. Very pretty. I’m hoping to keep doing that. I like the extra distance and I like going down the hills–I got to 28mph! I bet I can get to 30. Also I think I can get better photos of the rolling countryside on that…

The side of a van I saw tonight. I’ve got another picture that shows how tidily this van is parked, patching a hole in the fence of it’s yard. Print version.

Whatcom Creek, 2010
I was able to prop the camera against a signpost and get this 1 second exposure with my 28mm lens. Sometimes I’ll start some post-processing, get a bit frustrated, and come back to it after puzzling it out in the back of my head after a while. It getting texture I visualized for the water…
