Queues and Lines
Buckle up. We’re headed to McDonalds with more beef than we might leave with. TL;DR I feel that Americans might do well to adopt the term queuing to help normalize a sense of community and cooperation instead of the usual “destined to conquer” approach we take to nearly everything in life — including the McDonalds…

Recent Skies
While browsing my phone camera roll recently, I noticed that I’ve been taking some interesting photos of the sky. The featured image above is from Portage Lake on the Fourth of July weekend. Kim looked like a wizard summoning weather from the north (with her phone, as modern wizards do). The rest of these are…

Walkin’ ‘Round ‘Bou
Honestly I had never heard anyone call this town “‘Bou” until Kim posted it on Facebook yesterday. It’s kind of a cute name for this town. Anyway, Kim and I went for a walk with Jeannie around Caribou yesterday. We started off at the park near Collins Pond (is it still called a “pond” since…

Some Morning Photos
Just trying to keep up the daily(ish) photo habit, guys. Here are a few photos I took the other morning. Jeannie typically wakes me up between 5:30 and 6:00 each morning to go outside and pee and sniff around. I decided to follow her lead and sniff around for things to photograph (and probably pee…

Storm Over the Aroostook River

Somebody who actually knows something about small engines recently agreed to take them away, so I dragged them out to the driveway for them to pick up. I can’t help but think these machines are too…

Caribou Stream
I took a few minutes during my lunch break a few days ago to snap some photos of Caribou Stream and the Main Street bridge that goes over it. Caribou Stream crosses Main Street and runs by Water Street, one of the oldest streets in Caribou.

A Quick Run to the Chemist
I’ve always loved that people overseas call it the chemist instead of the pharmacist. Anyway, I had to pop down to the chemist yesterday and snapped a few photos while I was out.

Walking Around Presque Isle
In my youth (early twenties) I spent quite a lot of time wandering aimlessly around Caribou and surrounding towns with my first digital camera. I was also a wanna-be writer in those days and would compose a lengthy blog article to chronicle my adventure (here’s an example). In those early days, I took more photos…
