Went camping on an island on the Kennebec River this past weekend. I didn’t take many pics, but got one of this cute little island on the paddle back yesterday:
It was a great time of year to be there. No ticks, still warm, and we shared the whole island (4 miles long) with only one other set of campers!
Heard a lot of barred owls each day, too.
We worked an outdoor show early this morning, it was at a beautiful marina/beach/nature place on Lake St. Clair in Michigan, they have an awesome nature trail system so when we were done off we went for a 3 mile walk.
All I had was my Google Pixel 6 Pro but it does a pretty good job. Tomorrow I think I’ll take the good camera and see what we can find.
These flowers had hundreds of big teddy bear bumble bees.
Almost missed this guy.
This guy was squawking up a storm or I never would have seen him.
Almost missed him, lots of bird watchers with cameras and lenses I dream about.
Great stuff.
Does this count as outdoor rec?
Chicago riotfest.
The Linda Lindas are all 18 and under. But they can “Really wail”
Yay, the Linda Lindas!
Who else is playing?
Big draw tonight is NIN. Just before them is the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Less than Jake, Coolio, and a bunch of bands I dont know but am excited to see/hear.
Watching “Mom Jeans” now
I don’t know them either. Are we old and out of touch? 
No, must be the kids who are wrong…
Let me know how NIN is! Last time I saw them was when they toured with Bowie… several iterations of the universe ago now…
A rollicking good time. They played a lot of stuff drom Pretty Hate Machine and Downward Spiral. A great set.
Poliça were great, a bit like Dido meets electronica. Sleater-Kinney were also darn good (yes that’s Carrie Brownstein from Portlandia)
After all these years, PHM is still kind of the best of his work, isn’t it… DS stands up pretty well, too.
Or Carrie Brownstein from Sleater-Kinney?
Well yes, shes from both 
but I figured many more folk would know her just from Portlandia
Maybe… but we call those people “posers”…
Oh, for a second there, I felt like it was the 90s and I was young again! Then my back reminded me otherwise and I remembered how I’ve totally outgrown those sort of stupid cultural purity tests!
I guess aging isn’t ALL bad! People tend to be less insufferable when they age! Not everyone, but most of us.
Fun fact: Sleater-Kinney is named for a highway exit off I-5 between Seattle and Portland.
Get ready for some emerging formations. We’re heading to Lake Powell to see some shit that’s been underwater for decades. Photos to come later.
ETA that was not meant to be a reply to @DukeTrout, unless you want it to be, @DukeTrout

Hiked the 2 miles up to Franklin Falls near Snoqualmie, WA, and shot this slow-mo. ^_____^
Edit: Sorry, had to downgrade video so it would fit under the 8mb file size cap.
Edit.2: Changed video to instagram link. Thanks @anon3072533 for the tip!
Edit 3: Domo Domo, @anon67050589, that was a great suggestion!!! LOL, @anon3072533 no more edits from here on out, I’ll just wallow in shame. ^_____^
Oh, that’s lovely. I got that rejuvenated feeling you get from being near water, just from watching your video!
Some people will post a link to their Insta or Photobucket or whatever site they use where they can post the entire thing.
Heh, that was @anon67050589 , but I’m flattered to be confused with her 
Times like this make Citizen Cope’s song “Mistaken Identity” pop to the fore, along with that feeling that I associate with returning a wave that was actually meant for someone else. ^____^
