Today I learned Eastern Washington has its own version of Brexit in the form of the "Liberty State" movement and even more hair follicles on my scalp instantly died.

🚴🏻 Got in my first bike commute of the year yesterday and it was pretty good, but sad that the Children of the Sun trail adds time. Now I've got to finish my much delayed eBike project so I can see if it will allow me to get my travel time back in the neighborhood of a half hour.

🏀 Jaden McDaniels just picked Washington over Kentucky and Coach Hopkins has landed his first elite recruit. UW is going to be loaded!

Still stiff and sore from playing and pitching six innings of Kickball on Monday. It's kind of fascinating to see how slowly my somewhat old unadapted muscles have bounced back from that type of exertion vs. Bloomsday (minimal soreness and did a hard workout two days later).

🛴 Tonight I had one of my best scooters harvested to gas used ratio nights to date. I managed to grab 8 scooters and return home on one gallon of gas. Tomorrow I'm going to see if an afternoon/evening reverse bike commute is a worthwhile way to save another gallon.

I'm kind of curious what would happen if one of the subpoenaed administration officials defied Trump and testified anyway. Would they get fired/arrested? Trying to understand the stakes if they actually chose to recognize their constitutional duty.

🚴🏻‍♂ Got in a short dusk bike ride around GU, the University District, and the Centennial Trail last night and it was glorious!

Today's reminder that I am getting old: William Shatner came to Spokane for a Wrath of Khan screening and the article covering the event mentioned that he is 88 years old!

Loki, the trickster neighbor cat, has taken over our roof! 📷

Did some work in the front yard pulling dandelions today. It's amazing how quickly my nose starts running, but I persevered and made a lot of progress.
