He's now told me that I need to listen for various Star Trek actors along the way. I was able to ID Jonathan Frakes pretty quickly. Marina Sirtis took me longer.

That's what happens when you have friends in low places!

This is 100% something my husband would do

Y'all. At my husband's behest, I'm finally watching Gargoyles. It's so good!

This will get played many times in my classes this fall, as my college students prepare to vote, most likely for the first time.

I agree! I have been privileged to perform in several concerts for incarcerated audiences. Each was an intensely moving experience for me. In those moments, the music was a reminder of our shared humanity, regardless of the circumstance that brought us to that space.

I never get tired of the pelican videos. And that look at the end? Perfection!

My kids are watching Gravity Falls today. As a bell rang on the show, I realized that it's like Widow's Bay for the younger set.

It's wild to me that we in Northern New England have the highest storm risk in the country today! The sky here in my corner of Vermont is currently an ominous shade of orange from wildfire smoke pushed in ahead of the storms.

Any moth experts want to tell me who is on my front door right now? It's about 4-5 inches across.

Vermonter here! Aside from the wild storms on Thursday, you picked a spectacular week to visit, weather-wise!

Ours is an Oxo one fwiw. Super satisfying to pit cherries now. We're not olive people, but it also works for olives. Happy Pitting!

Naive question: Do you have a cherry-pitting gadget? We have one, and it's super fun to use.

Chaperoning my kids' field trips is now one of my favorite things for precisely this reason. This year alone, I was able to go: -Apple-picking to learn about pollinators -Sailing on Lake Champlain -To the State House, watch the legislature at work, and MEET THE GOVERNOR

This little gem popped back into my head this evening for No Reason At All. (I deeply enjoyed playing this as a young clarinetist)

Move over, Tower of London! We have ravens at our Little League ballpark! I heard them calling tonight!

I live in Vermont, and the joke up here is to never leave your car unlocked in the summer, lest you find yourself with a seat full of your neighbor's extra squash/zucchini/cucumbers.
