Blueberries! I just picked these this afternoon.

Black raspberries! These are probably my favorite berries of all time. I have picked maybe a gallons worth this year.

I've got tomatoes, but they're still a few weeks before they're ready. Here are some ancho chilis.

And last garden pic, my hop vines are climbing. This is Nugget. Yes, I've used these in brewing beer, and look forward to a good harvest this year in about August.

I mentioned my Mom being a great quilter, I won't spam this thread with all of the quilts. Here's just one hanging in my living room.

So tying all of this together, these all have to do with country living. The record is even blue for the berries.

I'm impressed, especially with Nugget! I've done some homebrewing but never to the extent of growing my own hops.

def leppard - high n’ dry

one of my best friend’s favorite bands is def leppard. since 1998 i have seen them like 9 times, which is at least 8 more than anyone ever needs to see def leppard. they’ve pretty much been playing the same setlist for thirty years. that said, high n’ dry is a pretty good album.

This vine has prospered despite of my efforts. I've had Centennial, Mt. Hood, and one other, but they haven't grown back in a few years. This one keeps on coming in every year. I might try to get more Centennial again, since that is one of my favorites. I haven't checked in a while, but Citra was only available in Australia or New Zealand. Maybe they've relaxed the export of the hop rhizomes lately.

I don't have it, nor have I listened to it. LOL

Instead, I'll spin my vinyl collecting birthday record (first vinyl bought). I have many cassettes and CD collected throughout my years, but this one started me on vinyl collecting. Also to tie it into the other themes, glass art often makes dragons.

Day 14: Flag Day

US holiday 🇺🇸, but I want to see your favorite flags and @cul8er ’s birthday!

I love Flag Day. I enjoy aesthetics and graphic design and a good flag has all of that. The Stars and Stripes of the American flag are phenomenal and well worth celebrating. The nice stark colors of Old Glory (what an fantastic nickname too) are bold without being overly busy.

“…and if it deserves a better class of criminal then I'ma give it to them tonight. So we'll rally around the flag, rally around the flag. Rally around the flag, boys, rally once again. Shouting the Battle Cry of Freedom. Rally around the flag, rally around the flag. Glory, glory, Hallelujah, His truth is marching on.”


We’re somewhere in the crowd over to the right of the stage.

Also, Happy Birthday @cul8er ! I hope you had a smashing good time. Cheers!
