Out for an after-lunch ride at 2 ㏘, only down as far as Wye River –although I stretched it out to the 20 ㎞ point at Birds Track before turning back – just seemed too gloomy, with the sun already behind the ridge & I didn’t want to go on to Kennett River. Damp air & cool, mostly sunny & clear, but lots of mist from the surf against the rocks. Lovely evocative smells from the damp heath.
Sadly, as always, far too many crap drivers passing way too closely

Vanity site? Technology experiment? Learning tool? Blog? Journal? Diary? Photo album? I could tell you, but then I’d have to kill you…
I experiment. I play. I write and I take pictures. Some of the site is organised around topics, other parts are organized by date, then there’s always the cross-references between them.
Its all been here a fairly long time. Like the papers on my desk, or the books on the bedside table, the pile just grew… and it all grew without much plan or structure. I try not to break URLs, so historical oddities abound.
Long ago it started as a learning experiment with a few static HTML pages, then I added a bit of server-side includes and some very ugly PHP. A hand-built journal/blog on top of that PHP, then a few experiments in moving to various static publishing systems. I’ve never wanted a database-based blogging engine, so over the years I’ve tried PHP, nanoblogger, emacs-muse, silkpage and docbook before settling on Emacs Org mode for writing and jekyll for publishing. But the itch remained… I never really liked jekyll and the ruby underneath always seemed so much black magic. So now the latest incarnation is Org mode and hugo.
