That wasn’t the theme when I started this. I had a weekend photo to use, and a day’s post to pad out. What to do, what to do? There’s always a photo post waiting to happen. <\/p>\n

And with three new photos and a slow Tuesday with few accomplishments to point to, I put a little branding tag on the pics. Time to try something new, I figured, and then I uploaded the photos. <\/p>\n

And that works! Three photos! I can write around that! Look at the text layer! How over-done and gimmicky! I wonder how long that will last! Or how long it will be before I change the font? Or the size? Or I have to work around a picture with poor negative space. <\/p>\n

Which was when I realized: I took all of these pictures in the backyard. And, if the backyard wasn’t somehow the height of adventure recently, that’d probably mean something. But, alas.<\/p>\n

That was earlier this evening. And this was soon after. Darkness had fallen, we stood out in the yard to look up. The International Space Station was soaring overhead.<\/p>\n

<\/center><\/p>\n

There are five people up there. I get to see it occasionally, and that never gets old. We are up there.<\/p>\n

Space still excites people. Excites me, anyway, even if it is just from the backyard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
