Today is GiveSTLDay. My employer, St. Louis Public Radio, is raising money to make our building more bird-safe. If you’d like to help out, here’s where you can learn more.
Hoping to get some paw paws late this summer.
Turned out ok. Pictured: A helper; The old improvised wood rack; The new wood rack in place; Filled.
Tools: I’m using my late grandfather’s carpenter’s square, my dad’s tape measure and my iPad in today’s build.
Last year’s hastily assembled firewood rack (a few garden stakes laid across some bricks to keep the wood off the ground, basically) finally gave out yesterday evening, so I spent the evening designing a new one in SketchUp. We’ll see how it comes together.
If you enjoy my bird photos, please consider donating to my employer, St. Louis Public Radio, for GiveSTLDay. We want to make our building in Grand Center safer for birds. Even $10 would help, but $25 gets a tote bag thank-you. More details

Every five or ten years I catch TOMMY (1975), and every single time I have forgotten just how incredibly weird the whole thing is. I found the Blu-Ray at the library yesterday, so reset the clock.
