Turkey Run State Park, Marshall, Indiana
I’m not sure I’ve ever met anyone that didn’t like Turkey Run State Park. Its a refuge in a state covered in corn and beans. Its known for its gorges and canyons cut out of Mansfield sandstone.
Kitchen Stand
My wife decided during our stay at home quarantine to start finishing projects. That has turned into more projects for me. We ditched a China cabinet, rearranged the kitchen/dining room space, and I built this kitchen stand microwave cart thing.
Best of Linux Note Taking
I’ve been a big fan of Google Keep ever since it came out. It easily syncs notes across my devices and its free. But there’s no native Linux client nor is it open source. The apps I’m listing meet my basic criteria: Linux compatible, syncs to Android, free (at least for the basic version), and ideally open source

Fort Macon, Carteret County, North Carolina
Construction on Fort Macon began in 1826 in response to the War of 1812 and other European conflicts. It was built as part of the Second System of US Fortifications. The Fort’s main claim to fame was the Civil War battle fought on April 25, 1862. Union forces commanded Maj. Gen. Ambrose E. Burnside had been working through eastern North Carolina. Brig. Gen. John G. Park, under Burnside’s command, was ordered to capture the Fort from the Confederacy. Union forces laid siege to the fort using four gun boats, floating batteries, and new rifled cannons. The fort took 560 hits. Confederate Col. White surrendered the fort the next morning. The fort remained under Union control for the rest of the war.
