This Week:

  • Was my first week back after a vacation to Toronto and Bancroft, Ontario. We went up for the first time since the pandemic, saw friends, visited Grandad’s Forest, and just enjoyed ourselves in a wonderful city. Some photos:
  • While I was in Toronto, I finished both Drew Magary’s “The Postmortal”, and James Morrow’s “The Asylum of Dr. Caligari”. The former was a dark, funny dystopia about the end of death, while the latter took on Cubism, the origins of film, and WWI in an adventure about art and love and violence.
  • The Museum restarted its Summer Crafternoons program! We had kiddos in last Wednesday and this Wednesday doing crafts and a scavenger hunt, watching old cartoons from the Internet Archive, and eating snacks. A great time was had by all.
  • I have been cracking the whip on trying to finish the Museum’s five year inventory.
