So magnificent.

Super cool to awake in our own bed yesterday.

The more places you see, the more similarities between humans you see.

And, the more places you see, the more differences between humans you see.

Here’s the insight (wisdom) i’ve gained…

i’ve learned our similarities, which appear to me as universal, are foundationally important.

i’ve also learned our differences are overwhelmingly unimportant.

.think .differently

Australia Day 6, mind

Dawn from a condo balcony
We awaken at 5:00 AM and see this. About 15 minutes later, this…
Sunrise
Never gets old.
Colorful toy store Building
Toys never get old either. This place reminds us of Al’s Toy Barn in Toy Story.

We are getting into a groove, slowly but surely.

Grateful we have three weeks in Australia.

We’d likely stay longer if it wasn’t for an upcoming Orlando keynote.

Smile reprise

Shirtless man next to a Iowa Hawkeye statue
Warm enough to sweat without a shirt. University of Iowa.

Felt great to saddle up yesterday and blog without using quotes.

Makes me smile.

Been taking pictures since receiving that first camera as a child. Received a free plastic camera. Our gas station had a promotion that you could get a free camera with a fill up.

Makes me smile.

Note: There’s a chance you had to buy it for a nominal fee but it was like 60 years ago, can’t recall.

Photos are stored in three places. This is an example of having a backup for the backup.

This too makes me smile.

One of those storage places sends a daily “on this day” photo memory sample. Many of the past week or so photos are from this random feed. Today is an example.

More smiling.

Thank you Disneyland

Paradise Pier
Paradise Pier, Disneyland.

Thank you Disneyland.

You provided some wonderful (Magical) insight on the Covid journey that is coming to a new, less stressful milestone – no masks on airplanes.

It could happen

Grizzly Bear and man
This could be the local Bass Pro Shops or outside someone’s cabin.

It could happen. You could be thinking, like i have been, that the five themes have been shot to heck with all this text-less, photos-only, videos-only experimental posts.

Agreed.

Thanks for coming along for the ride.

Doing things that might not work requires taking risks.

Crave failure.
