Installing Wrayal’s Sidecar
This article first appeared in Sidecar Traveller Nr.46 October 2019 I recently spent a couple days helping a friend swap his sidecar from a BMW G650 GS to a F800 GS. The 650 was his first sidecar rig; he’d gotten a smoking deal on it and it had served its purpose...
Walter’s Game Cart
I bought an inexpensive game cart from Sportsman's Guide and modified it so my dog can haul it. https://vimeo.com/user371939/download/463445444/a50d0446dd https://vimeo.com/user371939/download/463445444/a50d0446dd...
First Fall Foray
Summer 2020 in Oregon featured plague, drought, and catastrophic forest fires, but it had been raining hard the first few days of fall. Mike and I went up in the woods Friday to see if we could find any mushrooms. Walter Dawg and I arrived before Mike. Once parked, I...
Birthday Furlough Camp
My corporate overlords asked for volunteers for a one-week furlough as part of their pandemic austerity measures. I was not sure I was in a better place financially to take the hit than they were, but I was certain I could put the time off to good use, so I...

Good Morning
Friday the thirteenth, March, 2026 5:30 50F (10C) The rain has stopped. It is dark and windy. Overhead strong west winds send the clouds racing by patches of stars. On the ground, blustery gusts grumble through the bare oaks making the trees...
Good Morning
3/12/26 5:45 45F (6.66C) Still raining like a cow pissing on a flat rock. Very dark. Very wet. No wind.
Good Morning
3/11/26 6:30 40F (4.4C) Dark. Raining. In a fit of random, subconscious neologism, I dreamt of ventricular matriculation. It made sense at the time but now I have no idea what it means. ...
Good Morning
3/10/26 6:50 30F (-1C) The sky is clear except for a few straggling strands of clouds who didn't get the memo. The light has that peculiar shade of blue that comes early on a crisp winter morning: a deep illumination, not bright, but not dim. Ducks...
