https://sting.com/ery excited to see Sting tonight. I’ve seen every time The Police toured the US and almost every time Sting has toured solo. Excited to add one more to the list. We’re all getting older and I don’t know how many more chances I’ll get.

Just got my Flu and Covid shot for the season. Posting this as a gentle reminder for you to do the same. Herd immunity works.
Look, I believe if the title of your book begins “The Pocket Guide to…”, it better be a similar size and volume of pages as a Field Notes notebook. Otherwise, what are we even doing here?
I turn 59 years old today, which marks the end of my 59th year since birth.
Wait, what? you say?
Well, the way we count human years, a birthday marks the end of a year, not the beginning. Age 1, for instance, means you were born a year ago.
Yep, how we count the years is strange.

A high horse makes it difficult to see the people just trying to stand on their own two feet.
“Serve the role you’re asked to serve.”
My friend David Sparks said this in a conversation recently while we were discussing the relationship shift that comes once our kids become adults and leave home for college and otherwise. I’ve been thinking about it ever since.
Small Project Week has continued. I fixed the closer on our back screen door. I trimmed our hydrangea trees in front. My wife and I strategized on a couple of the other items on our list. Basically, of the 26 things on our list we knocked out about half of them. Yay us!
