According to the PictureThis app "This plant looks healthy!" and is 46 years old. Take that DeepSeek.

That's no way to talk about Al!

When I talk with Siri I always say "please" and "thank you."  Even though I'd still be a number or "thing" I want them to MAYBE remember I was nice when AI and the machines take over.... 🤣

^I say "Thanks Alexa. You're the best!", which usually generates some shade thrown from my wife 🤣

Like that Rick & Morty episode where the robot dogs take over (Lawnmower Dog).

As usual, I can never tell if it is me or Artificial Intelligence. In this case, I think Grahame's post could go either way...

I have been playing at a chamber music camp this week. I am not sure how I will make it two more days - as easily the youngest person here I am not sure where they get the stamina

It was yesterday, but niece Dorothy and I walked  the dogs in the newly renovated redwood grove nearby. Nate actually walked through this park before the additions of new paths and boardwalks and such. Anyway, there was a storm recently when a fair number of trees came down.

It's funny, Al, I was actually thinking of that trip the other day and as a result, am making Detroit style pizza today.  Before reading your post, and while making the pizza, I was also pondering memories and how there are some that I'm unlikely to forget despite the passage of time.  Driving up and back to SF from Monterey is one of them, the overnight with you and Steve, and the walk in the woods, being something that I think I'll always look back upon fondly.

^ Oh look, baby Redwoods. 😋

My trip to MOA 2 enamored me to Fairfax. I thought of it as an enchanted forrest village.

Now that feeling is multiplied here in Nicasio. I halfway expect to see and hear the Seven Dwarves at any moment.

Actually yesterday, but visited the DeYoung Museum for the last day of the Tamara de Lempicka exhibit. Amazing work. These are just a few of the paintings exhibited...

Got a Valentine's gift from a coworker. 

That's the nicest way I can think of to tell somebody to "eat a bag of dicks".

Very sweet

Slightly less explicit here.

Wait, what? That doesn't look like it's shaped like a vagina? I guess that's what "groovy" eludes to. Straight people and their subtleties, I just don't get it.

Went to The Museum of American Heritage (MOAH) in downtown Palo Alto. Easy to miss, and well, you probably want to miss, but there is a small Just for the Record: Classic Players & Phonographs! exhibit for a few more weeks (Open October 18, 2024 to March 2, 2025). Again small, but if you happen to find yourself in Palo Alto.

Just had a fantastic Birthday dinner at Rancho Nicasio with my four favorite people,  Al, Claire, Dorothy and Corrine.

Fires, mudslides now visitors looking to mooch my tri-tip BBQ. Not my house but 3 miles away.
