12 of 12

So I'm doing my 194th 12 of 12.

Normally it is 12 pictures taken on the 12th of the month. Since I only post once per day, you get my images the following day. All pictures taken with my iPhone. Click images to enlarge, if you choose.

Created by Chad Darnell and picked up from, what I can tell, any number of random bloggers who then link back to him and vice versa. Chad is no longer doing this, nor is successor coordinating the linking of other 12 of 12'ers anymore

03:59. Blurry. 

It was me at a stop sign. I guess I moved the phone too fast. 

04:10. Furnace Blast x 2. 

Cleveland Cliffs does this to release gas pressure or burn off excess heat. 

04:23. Peloton day. 

04:56, Post-Peloton day. 

06:10. Brekkie. 

08:19. Morning snacks. 

12:38. Walk with the boys. 

Shep was not feeling well the previous night, so 710 and I changed shifts in caring for him. 

I came home and 710 went to the office. 

13:30. Nap. 

Since I was up much of the night with Shep, we both took a 45 siesta. We both needed it. 

16:32. Read time. 

New book. Almost 200 pages in so far. Not bad for a day. 

17:50. Wal*Mart Produce. 

Nothing says 'sad' like buying cherries at a Wal*Mart on a late Friday afternoon. 

16:25. Spring Running Club get together. 

My second beer of 2026. This might be a record low. 

16:34. My first concert*

It was on the second date and yes, Kenny Loggins did open. I don't know the poster is actually 'real' or a nicely made-up artifact. 

This was hanging in the venue where we had the running gathering. 

*technically Barry Manilow was my first concert. My mother dragged all the kids, but I refuse to mention this event when anyone asks my first concert.
