Early morning power outage let me see that the resilience of my mining rigs is not where I wanted it to be. I suspect Bitcoin Core is not booting or the external drive is ejected or the docker is not connecting the datum templates. At least it is an easy fix when I’m home. #homemining
For anyone considering starting a Fairy Garden. Maybe don’t. Just stick to wildflowers. #gardenstr image
I went somewhere warm today and saw this Queen eating nectar on a milkweed vine. image
GM I had to set an alarm today which always sucks. But the plumber came and replaced the anode rod in the water heater and flushed the tank. I guess I could have let it go longer but I love doing maintenance because replacing broken things sucks more. 4yrs btw. image
If we could get the price of a home from 6.34 bitcoin to 1 bitcoin. That would be great. image
Gotta love “the merchant network” (sarcasm). The hold authorizations were supposed to be automatically released. But two weeks later, nothing. image
Everyone rn is clearly waiting till October 4th at 4:20pm to start the bull run 🤦 image

I’ve been wanting more goldenrod in my yard for summer pollinators. Canada goldenrod can get taller than I want. I stumbled across this Elegant goldenrod (Solidago lepida) while scoping out a trout filled stream in the mountains. This will be perfect to grow from seed. #plantstr #nativeplants #goldenrod
Fall isn’t for the weak. I’ve got squash to soup-ify! #gardenstr
I’ve never been to Peter Sinks. After today I can still say I’ve never been to Peter Sinks. An attempt was made. The access requires 10+ miles of hiking or specialized equipment, which did not bring.
Blake is the Utah state biologist and he observed this rare phenomenon of a queen and monarch on the shore of Utah Lake this week. While the monarch population is low, making them few and far between in Utah. The queen rarely makes it to northern Utah and is an absolute surprise. Having them together on swamp milkweed in late summer is amazing to see. image
Facebook group with 49K members. I try to keep it civil but some members just aren’t that way, so I ban them for calling me names. image
Milkweed supports many bugs, including the monarch butterfly. image
*viewer discretion is advised* Fresh milkweed seeds are irresistible to mice. Knowing this, I remembered to set a fresh trap in the garage a few nights back, to protect the drying seeds. Thank goodness I did. image
With the seed jacket removed. You can clearly see the plant is ready to grow. It just needs warm, wet and bright conditions to fulfill its goal. image
