No matter if you not seen all of the MCU much, having Robert Downey Jr be Iron Man was One of the Greatest Moves Marvel Studios did and probably one of the greatest casting in media ever. Both Iron man and RDJ were cut from the same cloth and I am glad that we got to see a world where this casting happened and I am glad Stan Lee really meant what he said about RDJ.

Jon Favreau's smiling in the background is also amazing to see with how he also backed RDJ as well at the start of the campaign.

I wanted to share my DIY project. It went super viral on TikTok and the vast majority of the comments were about how happy it made the viewer to watch. I figured I'd put it here.

Standing beside brave men, our four legged heroes ask for nothing

I was on a solo road trip, visiting Chuckanut Drive in Washington to shoot the sunset, when an older gentleman walked up and asked where I was from.

I'm a pretty chatty guy, but I was cautious. I’ve seen plenty of movies where someone gets shoved into the back of a van, never to be heard from again, and I know the less-murdery-scams too.

Turns out he just wanted to show me the best places for photos.

I felt a bit dubious, but humored him because why not? After all, I had a fair bit of time to kill until the sunset, and I've met some interesting folks during my ten years of travel.

I let him show me three or four, which clearly made him happy.

And guess what? The fellow knew his stuff!

Each vantage point he led me to actually was a great spot for a picture.

Done helping me, he approached a few other couples too, but they weren’t interested.

Later, I saw him sitting on a rock, looking a bit lonely, so I went over to chat. He seemed surprised when I sat next to him.

Turns out he’d lived on Chuckanut for thirty years and was happy to share pictures of the view from his place down the road. It was a modest house, but with fantastic views, which he was proud of.

When he asked what I do, I told him about our travel life, and he asked if I might write about him someday. I said, sure.

I wish I’d gotten his name. So, to the man on the rock: thank you for the sunset tour.

And if you’re reading this and are ever on Chuckanut Drive and he approaches you, let him show you around.

And if you're worried about something bad happening, he doesn’t even have a van.

Just excellent taste in viewpoints.

Im celebrating Halloween early with my puppy and celebrating her braveness to overcome a broken cheekbone, a mauling and trauma with other dogs. She now is no longer terrified of other dogs. I included her new friend from the dog park same breed as the dog that mauled her so she was bit scared at first but I took it really slow with her and watched carefully and closely and she learned how to play with a nonviolent dog. I love my sweet Belle. She's a rescue and I'm so grateful for her. My ex cheated on me recently so we broke up and Belle has been there for me licking away my tears 😂 I just wanted to celebrate dogs and all they do tor us. :)
