On a train back to Boston and we’re jumping the gun

Shawshank, August 3, 2026

Another morning here. It’s definitely cooler this morning. I believe we have a two day or so break from the heat. Instead of the highs in the 80s/90s, today it’s a high of 67°. We’re already at 61°. I got up and fed the crows. I made the clocks sounds…

Shawshank, August 2, 2026

Good morning my friends. The tiny kitten, Pippin, wanted to snuggle early this morning. She meowed and snuggled, but her meows woke the big boy. So she got paranoid and bolted. The right side of my face felt over-full. I got up and took two allergy pills, and crawled back…

But if I smell like smoke, it’s only ’cause I’ve been through hell

Shawshank, July 29, 2026

Good warm morning, my friends. Podrick was a super good boy, and didn’t wake me up. He only walked across my legs once, maybe twice. Still warm here. It gets hot in the afternoons, but the mornings are just warm, and sticky. The humidity is pretty high. I don’t know…
