There are so many good ways to let yourself be small in the world.

I miss boredom.

I'm working from home today, in a room full of books. Bright pre-autumn sunshine is coming through the window. I'm sitting at a computer, typing.

I miss the kind of boredom where there's nothing to worry about, except maybe vague far-future worries. The kind where you've read all the interesting books and you reach for the ones you've been putting off. Then you draw a little. Then you sit and think.

I'm sitting here in the bright sunshine and the sound of cicadas, typing.

Did you catch my interview with Lori Walsh on In the Moment? It’s titled, “Vermillion artist receives international Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant,” and you can listen through SDPB.

One of my daughter's travel diaries from China. I love these cats very much.

I loved how this sliver of sunlight was like "hello, window!"

I caught this little wood-peewee in the moment before sallying into the air after a breakfast of midges. The tangle of wild rose and chokecherry beneath em was a feathery circus of peewees, yellow and yellow-rumped warblers, and a few cedar waxwings flitting for insects and pausing for buds and berries.

Around sunset tonight, I got a fairly close shot of a New Zealand Grebe with some nice coloured reflections.

This the amphitheater where the local #PelicanOrchestra performs every spring and summer. The name is a little on the nose, but at least it's not commercial?

Anyway, happy #WorldPhotographyDay to everyone else who loves to take pictures (or or course loves to look at them).

So they can be forgotten

I’ve got a feeling it’s all US based, because that’s where Distrokid is located. Hopefully I can get artist accounts setup on these services soon and I’ll see what I can do to rectify this going forward. It’s supposed to be available for sale on August 26th, hopefully that will be worldwide.

Pax is taking a break from playing to wish you a fun-filled Tuesday!
