One nice perk of living in a overwhelmingly blue sky place: when there are clouds, you are excited to see them.

Ice skating outside in Tucson. I’ve seen the fake plastic stuff before, but this is the real deal. Cool and odd at the same time.

Leaf Cutter ants along the Loop. They are farmers! They don’t eat the leaves, they carry them back to their nests and use them for their fungus gardens, which they cultivate.

Dia de los Mu***os at El Tiradito.

I’m seeing a lot of older cars on my rides, like this 70’s era Plymouth Duster. Perhaps you are looking at the next Kitt or General Lee. Or perhaps only a B list famous car, like the Starsky and Hutch’s Gran Torino or the A Team’s black van. Currently the HBO show Duster is being filmed in Tucson. As a surprise to nobody, it’s about drug running in the 1970’s. Personally, I’d be more interested in a series by JJ Abrams about CAP, the Central Arizona Project. It’s a massive, somewhat hard to believe water scheme which could also be set in the 1970s. It’d be Chinatown-esqe! Shoot, you could still get Jack Nicholson.

Ever since covid, I don’t have folks come into the office anymore. Logistically, it’s worked out better actually. But what to do when you have a big inventory of tshirts? Why, make an outdoor display. I’ll be curious to see if it works. I don’t make any money on the shirts, but better to have them out in the world as advertising than sitting in a box in my office.

“We’re gonna need a bigger altar.”

Tucson received almost 13 inches of rain this summer. The plants, like this Mexican Bird of Paradise, are so lush compared to last year when we got less than 2 inches over the summer.

Women’s hoops just lost to UCLA. The men’s team is in deep doo doo it appears. Makes you almost look forward to the football season. Fact: there is actually a football team at the U of A.

Dumpster Fire on 7th Street

I've heard the term many times of course. Recently, for example: "Man, the Arizona men's basketball season has turned into a total dumpster fire!" Today, however, I finally got to experience the real deal!

Mighty muddy

The mighty Santa Cruz river just west of downtown. Well, more muddy than mighty.

Hotel Congress Patio

While I'm not one of those folks that hates snow, quite the contrary, I have to say it's nice to be able to enjoy a patio this time of year.

Sonoran Glass

Bit of drizzle today. Time to warm up by the ol' blast furnace at Sonoran Glass School.

La Placita coming down

For more than 3 years I've been telling people that La Placita would be bulldozed. That day has arrived. Its flawed 1970's design no longer works. You know what still works? All the old adobes they destroyed to make room for La Placita. The remaining half of Barrio Viejo could be renamed Barrio Costoso. I know hindsight 20/20 and all, but que horrible.

Train Station ride

Behind the scenes

Fun night ride with the folks from Wanderlove.

Neighborhood cricket match

Puppies not included

Oh yes, cyclovia did involve biking. BYOP.

Incoming!

In case biking or the music wasn't enough, Cyclovia had ziplines.

Cyclovia music

Enjoying Cylcovia on the south side. Closed off streets and music . . . super!

Trusty steed Kawasaki

I've reopened up for the fall. I was in Colorado and saw some cowboys herding cattle on motorcycles. Perhaps trade them out for fat bikes and a new sport is born!

Hooray for Everything

Smartphones are really amazing things, but great sound recording is not their strong suit. That being said, take a listen to what I stumbled across while leading a tour across the U of A campus. The Simpson's watching dude inside me had me primed for Hooray for Everything, but after listening for 3 seconds I dropped the snarkiness and just enjoyed.
