Back Yard: Shake to Shuffle

I took out the trash today and took the opportunity to take a photo-a-day shot. Actually, five of them, thanks to Hipstamatic’s shake to shuffle.

Opening Night Cats

The cats are super excited that tonight is opening night for the Boston Bruins. They are losing 1-0 to the Blackhawks in the first period. Connor Bedard just scored his first NHL goal.

Today’s Photo a Day Pic

Robin Sparkles was kind enough to pose for a picture before I left for the office this morning. Thanks, cat!

Tuesday Night Cats

Random pics of the cats for no reason at all except they are freakin’ adorable.

First Sight of the Day

What was the first thing you saw this morning? For me, it was Lily.

Today’s Photo a Day

I only played for a few minutes this morning. I noodled on a song idea. It’s not much of anything and I don’t know if I will even do anything with it. I’m feeling a little creatively brain fried right now. Not sure why.

I’m about to punch in to work. We’re going to be at half strength today. Hopefully being Columbus Day means that most people will have the day off and we won’t have a lot of issues to deal with. There were a few things going on over the weekend that some of my staff may have been pulled into. I will get a status update on all of that shortly. Hopefully it stays quiet.

Okay then, let’s get this Monday started. Duck and cover, folks… here we go!

Back Home

We’re back home. We were out for about five hours. The trip was a bit of a bust from the leaf peeping and photo taking point of view. From the perspective of Jen and me jumping in the car and road trippin’ for the hell of it, it was a total success.

We didn’t stop anywhere. As soon as we got North of Concord, NH the clouds moved in and everything looked gloomy and bad. We dipped our toes into the White Mountain region and then turned around and took the long way home.

I took exactly one photograph:

Leaf Peeping

The weather forecast was kinda crummy today but the reality isn’t too terrible. Jen and I are going to give leaf peeping a shot. That will let us go out in the world while still being paranoid about spreading any last vestiges of the Covid… even though that is literally not a thing.

I have my Nikons in the camera bag. The Z5 mirrorless with the new 28mm lens, and the FG-20 film camera with the 35-70mm zoom. I even turned on the SnapBridge app connection so that I can possibly post Z5 shots to the blog while we’re out. There was only one shot on the memory card and it crossed to my phone and it’s Robin, of course.

Lets see how it goes today. Fingers crossed for some cool views and decent shots.
