I’m not the best at taking pictures but the @dwalbert corner of our front room is looking great.
Every once in a while you come across a song you could listen to for the rest of your life: The Byrds, “John Riley” 🎵

One of my projects for next week’s vacation is to restore an old chair. The seat will need caning, and I plan to have an Amish shop do that part. I’ll do the cleanup, repair (if needed), and painting. I’ll be using milk paint for the first time.
One week until vacation. We’ll mostly stay around home. Maybe one day down to Madison, IN. Maybe a solo day trip. Mostly just not thinking about work.
Today’s walk to Murray woods.
Colter Wall’s cover of “I Never Go Around Mirrors” is the distilled essence of country music. His voice, the classic lyrics, stripped down music, the harmony. It’s just perfect. 🎵
I got a handmade straw hat from the local Amish community. My family and friends’ reaction has been … mixed. 😂
