I haven’t spent much time downtime since the pandemic. In previous days, I would frequently spend a weekend morning or afternoon with a short walk, shoot some photos for a while, and finish with a beer at Mother Road, breakfast, or coffee somewhere. Yesterday was just the walk; it was fun too see the shops decorated – even with the late morning sunlight being less than ideal for photos – and nice to again do something that I used to really enjoy.

I picked up breakfast this morning from Tourist Home, one of my pre-pandemic favorite spots, and brought it home to enjoy on the porch in cool, damp weather. The sandwich got a bit smushed in transit, but was still fantastic.

Oh, this keyboard hobby is going to be a Thing, I can tell. I got some alternative switches to try in my Q1. These are quiet tactile switches, slightly stiffer than the stock Gateron browns. I swapped them in for ESC and return, and got a nice, just stronger feel with less ping.
