Plein air at my favorite urban farm Reno Food Systems. The clouds were wild, and gave us good shade for much of the afternoon.

Just look at this light. Unedited, no filters.
Hope your evening is peaceful.

I went on a short hike today -- it's been a while and I needed it. I saw a coyote on the trail. Coyotes are not rare at all here, but I'd never encountered one while hiking, so it was interesting. He was very worried about the human taking photos of him. No roadrunners were found.

A friend and I had lunch at a tiny restaurant we didn't even know existed. This is the backyard patio we were seated in... It was quiet, the food was excellent and the server was just the sweetest. We are trying to get out periodically, to enjoy things, and decompress. Lives are stressful these days, but visiting lovely places definitely helps.

The Nevada Independent: Reno extends its data center moratorium into 2027. Here’s what happens next.. “City of Reno staff are planning to cast a wide net in proposing regulation changes for data centers after the city council voted 6-1 on Monday to extend a temporary moratorium on the centers through August 2027.”

This is Reno Downtown Library.

A golden cluster of wild buckwheat I found on Huffaker Hills trail.

Any day you manage to get out in the wild, it's a good day. I lived.

I can't tell you just how much I love this trail.

Do you know what I just had to do? Put all the citrus pots back in the greenhouse. Get the electric heater back out again and set it up. Cover the swamp cooler so I can prevent the draft.
Because it's 40°F out and flurries are coming down. FUCK.

A local, woman-owned small business that produces my favorite soap just announced that she's closing the business. I instantly ran to another woman-owned shop that sells the soap, and bought 80% of what they had (compelled to leave some for other fans). Very sad but I'm sure she has other plans. Whatever it is, I'm here for it.
This is the entrance of the lovely shop called Sierra Water Garden, for the Reno locals.... Isn't it just lovely?

My first iris, just in time for the winter to return....

Slow walk through the park.

Although short and quick, I got to explore the new (to me) trail on today's solo hike.

Thank you, Paco. I always griped about your layout and proofreading skills, but you were always there for our community, and you were tireless! 🫡🏳️‍🌈 #RenoNevada

The Great Reno Ballon Race

A sky alive with color rises above the Nevada landscape as dozens of hot air balloons drift upward in a vibrant celebration of light and motion. The Great Reno Balloon Race captures the joyful energy of this iconic festival brilliant patterns, bold hues, and the quiet grace of flight suspended against an open, sunlit sky.

All 15 paintings made their way into the Sierra Arts Gallery, and the gallery pup gave me a moral support. This is one of my biggest exhibits. I am relieved that my part is done (other than showing up for the reception and smile a lot), but there's no time to relax... I need a couple more paintings done for the next show in January.

Here, take some flowers because tomorrow is Monday.
These are some of the wildflowers I found on the trail from the waterfall hike on Thursday. Incredibly intricate prickly poppy and a solitary snowplant.

I know it's only going to make sense to 2 or 3 people who follow me, but i just have to give props to our local newspaper's email newsletter. it makes me laugh every day. ("Know someone else who wants local news poorly explained via email? Tell them to subscribe to The Reno Memo.")

Today, this gem:

"5 arrested, 12 cited in prostitution sting operation in Reno. Click here to briefly skim for the names of people you know."

comedy gold! #RenoNevada #RenoNV #Journalism

Hey, Reno friends! Come on over -- i'm baking Deux Gros Nez scones today, the full restaurant-sized recipe. It makes about 90, if i recall. #RenoNV #Baking #RenoNevada #GoneButNotForgotten

ok, progress report: our team of four all agreed that on the nose, this is 100% Doritos — amazingly, uncannily so. Tasted neat, the Doritos corn flavor hits hard up front and on the finish, with a weird aggressive alcohol wave in between. As the prescribed maragarita, the Doritos flavor gets lost until the finish , but it’s still ok for 1 or 2 rounds — but then the novelty is lost. as a panelist, @heurism can weigh in too, but those are our thoughts. #Empirical #Doritos #RenoNevada

getting ready - tonight’s the night we’re cracking open the bottle of Empirical’s Doritos Hootch. Stand by for a report. #Empirical #Doritos #RenoNevada
