Huge crowd (as Kevin is wont to draw), and had a blast the whole way.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to that I did one of those things that counts as PROPER ADULTING &#8212; not like, &#8220;I cleaned my counter, yay #adulting,&#8221; but rather, &#8220;I updated my last will and testament and figured out my physical and literary estate for when I finally kick off, be it today or ten thousand todays from now, and sure, hey, let&#8217;s consider the legal ramifications of my eventual hop-skip-shuffle off this mortal coil, whee #adulting.&#8221; This is a reminder that if you have not squared away the Circumstances After Your Demise, do so. Doubly so if you have children, triply so if you are a person who has intellectual property about which to worry.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of the mortal coil &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>I am sad to see George Romero go. Romero created for us an\u00a0<em>entirely new mythology<\/em>, and that&#8217;s no small thing. He understood that monsters were not merely monsters, but rather, that they were a commentary on us, or a reflection of us. Further, he was a paragon to both the horror community and the independent film community. Last week I had the distinct pleasure of being in a <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2t7LMR7\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Night of the Living Dead<\/span><\/a><\/strong><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">\u00a0anthology<\/span><\/strong> that Romero co-edited with Jonathan Maberry, and now, Romero being gone is just a kick to the teeth.<\/p>\n<p>Onward, now, to a few more macro photos for the week &#8212; the first of which is from a plant that is literally called RATTLESNAKE MASTER (also my nickname in high school). Second photo is a ladybug pupa. Third photo is waterdrop on evergreen.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/c1.staticflickr.com\/5\/4277\/35022633244_9622993fec_h.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/c1.staticflickr.com\/5\/4277\/35022633244_9622993fec_h.jpg?resize=700%2C1051&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"700\" height=\"1051\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/c1.staticflickr.com\/5\/4210\/35730855801_eb8d2307a6_b.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/c1.staticflickr.com\/5\/4210\/35730855801_eb8d2307a6_b.jpg?resize=700%2C467&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/c1.staticflickr.com\/5\/4297\/35980250165_1f85713872_b.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/c1.staticflickr.com\/5\/4297\/35980250165_1f85713872_b.jpg?resize=699%2C466&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"699\" height=\"466\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>See that photo?
