kirkwood 4th of july parade 2023

Posted on July 4, 2023 by | 3 comments

My spouse and I went to the annual Kirkwood 4th of July Parade. It’s a small neighborhood parade going on since 1949. 🇺🇸🎆

Nobody noticed that I had a Soviet t-shirt on. 🤣

A not-too-close copperhead snake encounter at Guilford Courthouse National Military Park.

I told my spouse, “stick your hand in the love box” (that snake in the tree). lol 🐍

Brian played clarinet and ocarina today at Centenary United Methodist Church.

Nice place. The current location dates back to 1969. We both felt fully welcome.

Somebody’s washroom is breeding Bolsheviks again. 🧻🧼

And thar it was. Right out there on Greene Street. 😲

I’ve slapped things on traffic signal boxes before, but this one’s not mine.

tcl 10 pro camera test at country park

Posted on August 7, 2021 by | Leave a comment

I slipped a SIM into a rather inexpensive (compared to some) Android mobile that I recently ordered. It doesn’t have the “horsepower” of some that I’ve had, but it runs sweetly and has a straightforward beautiful interface that I like. It has Android 11.

It is a TCL 10 Pro – T799B. Got it for $315 mainly due to TCL now releasing the 20 Pro series thus dating this 10 Pro. Price went down by $135. Original TCL 10 Pro price was $450.

I’m no expert, but the camera seems adequate to me for a “cheap” smartphone. We went out to Country Park today to goof off and take some pictures with the TCL 10 Pro. I like budget devices that actually work.

A nice thing about going budget is that you don’t have to run ’em till they drop, unless you want to. If you smash it or lose it, your life won’t be completely over.
