Grusom @ High Voltage
Sadly, Grusom announced today that they have “decided to part ways”. This was a fantastic show (and day/night/next morning on my summer travels).

Farewell to Europe for another year
Prague’s Old Town from the Klementinum Astronomical Tower
Today I fly home after a couple of months in Denmark, Poland, the Faroe Islands, Scotland, and the Czech Republic. Even with limited festivals and music opportunities, I think this was the best summer in Europe for me yet. I hope to do it all again in 2022.
Czech rainbow
Rainbow near Chvalšiny (Czech Republic)
I frequently describe to friends the “magic” I experience when traveling. This year has been no exception. In fact, there has been even more than normal. I don’t know if there has been even a single day in the past couple of months without at least an incident or two.
Which is my lead-in for today’s photo… Another travel day which was supposed to be uneventful, simply go from point A (Plzen) to point B (Český Krumlov). The landscape was far more interesting than I imagined, so I ended up making a number of stops to take photos and enjoy the scenery. After one of the stops, Google maps directed me up a hill to the left of town instead of where I thought I was going (straight through town). I didn’t question Google maps as I had never been here. Also, I was zoomed in too much to see that my point B wasn’t up the hill or in that direction at all.
So I drove up the hill for a few kilometers before Google told me to make a u-turn and go back to where I had just come from before going through town. I was a little pissed and wondered how Google had made such a mistake. I audibly said to the air, “Why did you send me up this road, Google?” At that very moment, I rounded a corner to view the most vivid rainbow I think I have ever seen. I responded to the rainbow with, “Oh Google, this is why you sent me here!” The photo isn’t actually that great as it began to fade as I pulled over, got the camera out, etc.
Palace of Culture and Science
Palace of Culture and Science (Warsaw, Poland)
I thought about going to the top of this building earlier in the day, but the line was long and the weather wasn’t good for views anyway.
After dinner, the bus I got on went in an unexpected direction and I ended up here again. This place is much better looking at night so I was kind of glad my route home got a bit sidetracked.
How to collect on a life insurance policy
Trimming roof grass in the Faroe Islands
When I took this photo, it was raining lightly, as it had been for the past few hours. There can be only one explanation as to why this woman came out of the house to watch her husband fall to his death. I didn’t stick around for the gory part.
