The title, while about happy trees and art, has nothing to do with Bob Ross.

Star Trek is sexist. There’s a great article at IO9 about it today.

The mask order in the district starts Friday, stage 3 opening starts Monday. So umm, I dunno….

Most people in the store today were masked up. Probably 80 percent or so.

Isabelle’s art class is going well, she’s inspired by the waggle dance of the honeybee.

It really seems that the people who are not distancing as well are the olds. That may be some odd bias I have though.

My sixties garage rock obsession continues.

Hot again, we’ve been through, well, are sort of in the midst of, a heat wave.

Things are really green.

People are either caring a lot about their lawns, or, not at all. No in between.

Our garden is doing insanely well. There are lots of gardens.

Isabelle’s course through NSCAD seems pretty cool.

People are getting used to masks and distancing. Still, be careful.

Whenever Jon hears us talking to each other he figures we are podcasting.

We’ve been spending a LOT of time on Zooms.

Damn it’s hot today.

Isabelle had her opening, and it was great!

The store has relaxed some rules, it still says ‘one way’ and ‘entrance only’ but, no more arrows, so people are stupid. Also you can bring your own bags now.

I continue to bike.

I recorded my first lecture for the fall today.

Oh I got a new audio interface, a Focusrite 2i2. The thing is great. It replaces a unit I got a long time ago, back in the Thunderbird Six days.
