#northbendwa — Public Fediverse posts

Today:
"Terms of service" emails inspired me to dump random companies operating within the Gulf Of America king's sphere.
No quarters spent today on my wackamo project. :)
Ace Hardware, were still neighborhood friends but were not digitally tethered!

20 the century Craftsman rubber hose I bought at Sears. I probably had 4 of them when we lived within the farmers fields of Mead Wa. & they are still HAPPY campers...

Happy Friday world.
Smokey & I in #NorthBendWa. He's working & I'm on a walk-about.
This selfy was twins inspired. We have similar waste lines. :(
No emails yet covering a fire danger update.

#HelloWorld Have a nice Tuesday!
I walked to the market today somewhat undercover. Peeps don't know me so no worries.
Attached is a short YouTube video of me with a Brazil World Cup soccer shirt.
"Would I Buy Another #Kia?" is the title.

Visitors here in the #pnw reference rain as a negative. #northbendwa
Actually, I ENJOY the weather here. I do use the glass half full optics...
80% of my life was spent around sunny #Spokane Wa. :)
Anyhow:
Today, nature's natural solar is in full generation mode!
Have a good day earthlings.

Hello Fediverse,
I'm closing in on 4 yrs here!
Bird / X free. :)
Nice work self...
We walked thru #northbendwa doing errands this afternoon. Started in the rain. Then a nice titch of sunshine.
Lastly, one clap of thunder.
Here's Mt Si with fresh overnight snow.

I saw a bee an hour back here in #northbendwa . The critter was eyeing my Popeyes chicken while tailgating in the 62 degree sunny day.

This am.
While I was unloading free firewood, thanks to the city of #NorthBendWa, three deer were on their usual route 30 ish ft away.
I watched fog brewing just above the snow pack. 5 inches at our place.

Catchy title for a children's Christmas book. Wife found it at library book sale...

@jchyip My house is a yes possibility for the possible biggest (?) ever local flood. ( someday) The old 100 year flood lingo doesn't cut it for me. Our newer home is close to the city center of #northbendwa. There's no good high ground in our neighborhood too. Tracking Snoqualmie River flow & atmospheric rivers is something we pay attention to. Both are going on this week here in the #pnw.

This banana did not like it's round trip to Seattle & back to #NorthBendWa yesterday!
I enjoyed the adventure. Jury duty, walking, lots of fun food smells, a little rain. Felt like none of us were overtly drugged up... Many good people too.

@bobthetraveler
Bob, our toilet is 20" tall at seat. I'm sure it's odd to most people.
After being hit by a car in a Rome crosswalk, 3 ys back, I love my made in Mexico tall thrown...

My WONDERFUL wife Linda has baked me forty some German chocolate BD cakes so far.
From scratch too. We're taking our kids & grand kids to a fun spot here in #NorthBendWa.
Happy to be alive & kicking today...
Bill
Cheers & happy weekend to ya!

@StefanHabel
Stefan, if I had a bucket list, I'd include a ride on the Harbor #EV Air seaplane. On a nice day of course.

Once I delt with am rubbage ( garbage / compost / recycles & US #potus ), I steered my eyeballs towards the #EV hashtag feed.
My brain felt euphoric too... :)
Thanks Jaap, Skoda, Wikipedia, am coffee & of course Mastodon!

Today while enjoying a #NorthBendWa #pnw area / #mtsi view bike ride, I was comprehending the fact that holding a cell phone while driving is pretty much the same as holding a gun while driving.
Shortly afterwards I see the article below. Seems like semi-auto drive & a cell phone is like having two guns at the wheel.

My gadfly brain has twisted thoughts about saving energy as temps may reach 95 here in #NorthBendWa . We let the house stay warm when gone & I lowered the water heater temp for the summer. Never thought of having less heat in the shower by that manner...
Meanwhile, I'll contemplate ways to help the growing data centers use less water & power. Less stored cloud data & etc.

PS:, when you see my toots, you know #AI wasn't enlisted. :)

Folks may have gasp at the price of the Donald's big BD parade,
I'm guessing the June spending for middle east operations must have to exceed #MAGA millions...
We have a distant relative / fighter pilot in Saudi Arabia right now.
Of course, all this does not make me happy!

photo : ranger station near my home. Plastic tarp roof for 6 months now. They gave up on flying the flag too.

My wife Linda took me to the Little Si golf course for Father's day breakfast. The staff did a stellar job getting all the families in rather quickly too.
Anyhow, yup, that's me looking at an autonomous farm stand on site.
It looks so well thought out.

Talking politics person to person seems to be taboo these days since the top down US leadership is so eft-up. :(
So I'm excited to see my neighbor Terry s new flags!
#Canada #Ukraine #Mexico
Terry has been doing hiking trail rehab since 2008 as a volunteer.

President Zelenskyy, TIL, you are Now the leader of the free world. ( Sorry sir for the burden!)
Thank you for your service for ALL of us on the planet.
pic: I extend my hand to you in a virtual hand shake. All the best for the people of Ukraine...

Linda & I are all set for #february28 day tomorrow.
Were helping deflate the US economy for a day. Thanks Bernie... :)
No bank card use.
No online purchases.
and
No giant company $$ interactions.

Bonus, it's going to be another beautiful day here in #NorthBendWa / #pnw .

@EclecticHuman
Better half says ours is blooming.
So I check it out. Nice but not nearly as beautiful...

@tsupasat
Tyson & #pnw friends, I saw a chess group gearing up at the reopened (!) #NorthBendWa library last Friday.
Looked fun with a nice way to socialize in a toasty room...

Weds am was pretty quiet at #NorthBendWa super chargers. Guessing there weren't many east west I90 EV travelers. Healthy walk to Starbucks for some too. :) :(. #pnw

PS: Not so trailer pulling friendly or EV semi / neighborly friendly.
