At the 125th annual Hobo Days Festival in Britt, IA. Each year hobos from across the nation gather to celebrate their unique community & traditions & coronate the new Hobo King/Queen. A photographer made a tintype photo of my partner Rebekah and me. All he asked in return was to hear our stories.

My colleague @chadlewis.bsky.social has a brand new book out about the supernatural legends and lore of Lake Superior. If you're interested in the mysteries of the "Graveyard of the Great Lakes", this book is a must.

As many of you know, I consider myself a tiki bar aficionado. I'm at The Hello Hi tiki bar in Sioux Falls, SD. A wonderful blend of classic tiki with a modern twist. They have a number of delicious original creations (see menu pic).

Plus they are playing Plan 9 From Outer Space. Amazing.
