I’m in Oregon and then California for a little while, renting a van from the folks at Escape Campervans. Last night at Ainsworth State Park, falling asleep to the rain. Woke before dawn to drizzle and 41° and mild panic that they might not have hot showers. (They did.)

Multnomah Falls early this morning. A little cold and wet outside, had the place mostly to myself.
Figured there be some kind of view between Portland and the coast. Stopped about halfway, a nice break in the rain.
Continuing this vanlife adventure into the northwest, I'm at Coffee Girl in Astoria catching up on email and whatnot. I haven't been brave enough to get out the camping stove in the rain and cold, so no feasts yet, just basic groceries and some fast food. ☕️

Cool new service from @vincent for embedding "shoutouts" (could be like ads or other announcement-type things) on your web site: Shoutouts.lol. Confirmed it works well with Micro.blog-hosted blogs.

Found the ocean. Fort Stephens State Park.
Woke up to rain and the wind howling and the notices that Micro.blog had a long outage overnight. Sadly a networking issue at Linode that was mostly out of our control. Sorry for the downtime.

My traveling buddy for this road trip.
Maybe I didn't pick the perfect time to take a road trip and work even more remotely than usual. Elon Musk chaos, hosting connectivity problems like we've never seen before... Knock on wood, hope that's the end of it for a little while.

Devils Churn.
Definitely still some quirks in our ActivityPub implementation, which I'll be smoothing out as we notice problems. Getting better, though! So much new activity as people bail on Twitter. I've waited 10 years for this and it's still remarkable to see it happen.

The van at Umpqua Lighthouse State Park.
⬆️ Garden House, at Shore Acres State Park.
On the latest Core Int, I catch up with Daniel from the road to talk about this week’s Twitter chaos and the upcoming MarsEdit 5.

Somewhere along the Oregon coast yesterday.
Avenue of the Giants.
