squwetchy Another #autumn #watercolour landscape

adventuredog This is my summer-is-over face.

squwetchy An #autumn #watercolour expedition into some local nature and I improvised a mask for the tree trunks using some bits of grass.

adventuredog Balls!

gamerdad My foray back into the Tt LEGO-verse has taken me into the vast and nostalgic Star Wars world. #ps5 As with any game it’s good to find the tools early on that support and multiply your efforts, so that I’ve literally dug into to upgrades like the stud multiplier and the bonus radars within the first chapters of my play is probably not surprising. And with all nine movies to work through, I’ve opted for the boring but gen-x approach of release order. Episodes IV and V are in the bag!

8r4d Another #bucketlist item? I figured I should take a trip with my mother someday… so that happened. #sanfran #airport #selfie

8r4dsfeets Essentially the Pacific Ocean, right? A #bucketlist item was to dip my toes in the ocean. Check. #sanfran

8r4dsfeets I’ll take #sanfran runs that lead to the sea for $400

squwetchy It’s been a quarter of a century since my last visit here, and it’s always a wonderful reminder of the scope of the world and our long history when we travel. Tho once again the best plein air #sketching places are where the crowds are, and I with my pen and #sketchbook were plonk in the middle of people looking over my shoulder and even photographing my #urbansketching in the midst of ancient Roman ruins. This is the Palatino, an archeological site in the middle of Rome where the giants of history like Caesar once strolled … but today just little old me sketched.

8r4d Continuing the #alcohol themes posts, a lager #beer common at most restaurants in Rome, according to my limited research.

castironguy The drink everyone was drinking… the aperol spritz!

castironguy Three light limone birra for just three euros. What a refreshing break for the afternoon heat!
