Through a newspaper article, I learned about Hiroshi Yoshimura and his Ambient (Sound Design) music. It’s really nice background music to have playing. I’ve listened to three albums now, and “Surround” is my favorite.

Bringing a Little Joy Into My Day and Weekly Planning
There are endless blog posts about the latest to-do apps and systems. My goal is not to proclaim from the rooftops that I’ve found the secret to daily planning success but to share some thoughts on a few options that I have found very rewarding.
I have a constant struggle with Analog vs Digital; it perturbs me how much I think about this. I’ve given up worrying about which type of system it is, and I do what feels right and what keeps me on track. And, if that system brings a little joy to the process, even better.
Spent some time “Chatting with my highlights” in Readwise. I really like this feature. I have highlights from over 1000 books now so it’s really interesting to have a more focused knowledge base to ask questions from. This feature may alter which things I highlight in the future. 🧐

Ever seen the inside a Saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea)?
The woody skeleton inside the saguaro gives a framework of interconnected, woody ribs that provide structural support, enabling the cactus to reach heights of up to 40–50 feet.

More experimentation today. Not happy with anything, but learning has occurred. ☺️

Here are the others from the day I shot and had to choose from. Would you have picked a different one for your daily shot?
Inspired by @maique@social.lol, who posted some rainy-day windshield shots, I thought it was perfect that it was raining in BNA.
This is how we used to change a nose tire on the Twin Otter; this technique is probably frowned upon today 😆
I spent many hours working and flying on ol' 100AP; I miss that plane.

KIWIX - A User Report
I’ve seen this posted about Mastodon a lot, and then @amerpie posted about it yesterday, and I thought, why the heck not? Let’s check it out; I’ve got some time to kill.
So, yeah, this KIWIX is really cool. I’m not a Super Bowl kind of guy, so I downloaded Kiwix and then proceeded to download the entire Wikipedia, then iFixit, then Gutenberg. Sheesh, why not? I have a Synology with ample space, so why not lock some of this stuff in and have it on local storage?
