RIP Jan Morris. You lead a fascinating life. “Her life story was crammed with romance, discovery and adventure. She was a soldier, an award-winning journalist, a novelist and - as a travel writer - became a poet of time and place. She was known also a pioneer in her personal life, as one of the first high-profile figures to change gender.” https://www.theguardian.com/books/2020/nov/20/jan-morris-historian-travel-writer-and-trans-pioneer-dies-aged-94?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/25/books/jan-morris-in-my-minds-eye.amp.html https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-26924906

Maine looks beautiful. Not quite GoT, but stumbled upon a holiday lights pre-December setup in a nearby park. You know the traditional Xmas terrifying dinosaurs show. Not quite the full effect mid-day and without speakers outputting screams.

If we’re listing, received notice from Adobe today to remove Flash (don’t ask) as it EOLs next month. Clicked okay. System went down and after several reboots Adobe needed to install apps? After a few hours I think I’m back to normal, but Flash couldn’t even die quietly in the night?
