Happy Channels Day. Why not try to onboard the very curious people in the neighborhood who like to peer into my windows? It’s a whole process of course to get a sign permit for a business here, but I am allowed to have temporary ones on the interior sides of my windows. I’ll be having some fun with this.

A wonderfully preserved version of MacPaint I used to create the sign: archive.org/details/mac_... I love The Internet Archive.

Haha my wife did something similar in an apartment when she saw a cool person living the next apartment building. She complimented her plants and they had a back and forth for years without ever meeting.

Bert, I won't believe you until you come visit. In the meantime I'll work on building one of these.

We've been thinking of making one of these for my neighborhood!!! We have a Little Free Library and I think it would be the perfect complement. The Assistants say they're going to be up your way for a wedding later this year, but unfortunately I was not invited.

Who wouldn't invite you, Bert? You should check with the post office because your invitation obviously must have gotten lost in the mail. Open invite from me to you, any time :)
