R.I.P. Gil Gerard. 🥺 On special nights when I was growing up, we could watch TV as a family while having dinner. My sister wanted to watch Little House on the Prairie. I wanted to watch Buck Rogers. Dad wanted to watch Buck Rogers, so I won. 😬🚀 #rip #gilgerard #sciencefiction #tv #childhood

2nd try on the local mountain walk. This time I made it to the 3rd of the 5 switchbacks that lead to my goal of a bench with a view. Used to walk to the bench no problem in past years… until the right foot issues. Shadow selfie of the Texan in her leg warmers, jeans, undershirt, long-sleeves, jacket and hat. Just off screen: the Canadian couple in tank tops and shorts. #proofofwalk #outdoors

Second jigsaw puzzle finished with Mom. It’s 1000 pieces and was a lot of fun. I found it in a bookstore. What the designer did with that limited color palette is impressive: no real reds (the strawberries are almost the same orange as the wild rose background) and no purples. #jigsawpuzzle #flowerstr #familyfun

Tulip Tuesday! There’s quite a few blooming in town, but this is first in my Mom’s garden to open up. #flowerstr #blooming #outdoors #tuesday

FYI: Lyrid meteor shower is tonight April 21/early April 22 in the northern hemisphere:

Lyrids - Wikipedia

We’ve got a lot of clouds here (and it’s bloody cold) but maybe someone here gets to see them? #astronomy #grownostr #meteorshower #lyrid #outdoors

Brief hail storm, despite the fact the weather report was Sunny No Clouds. Cute tiny styrofoam bits hail up here; nothing like the marbles-sized stuff I get at home. #weather #videostr #hail

Caught up through 50/100, which is halfway…. and usually when I decide whether or not to continue with the rest of the 100 Day Project. Currently undecided.
