Guess who just got a couple tickets to see Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan in concert? We did! We did! We Did!

Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan and more are coming to Riverbend in #Cincinnati #Ohio on Sunday, Jun 22, 2025, 5:00 PM

They still have #ADA lawn seating available for $35+fees.

Lineup
Outlaw Music Festival
Willie Nelson
Bob Dylan
Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats
Trampled By Turtles
Myron Elkins

Like every other planned outing, it requires my health to cooperate, and we can get a house sitter, we will be going. If not, expect to see a couple Nelson/Dylan tickets for sale.

In Napier, a developer wants to build 660 "affordable" houses in a flood-prone area on Riverbend Road. This 2022 photo shows the flooded site (in the foreground) which is deeper than adjacent properties.

Hawke’s Bay Regional Council has voted unanimously to exclude Riverbend Road from future development due to severe flood risk.

However Napier and Hastings councils could still approve the development.

Gooseneck Panorama

Description: One of the first stops on the White Rim Trail is a little place often seen on the meandering Colorado River: a gooseneck bend

"People fleeing #Israel-i strikes flock to #Lebanon-#Syria border crossing" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsDbCcBLGKc

Syria absorbed a million or more #Iraq-is fleeing the US war on their nation and I never noted them asking the world for one thin dime. #Riverbend; Girl blogger from Baghdad, recounted her journey there at #BaghdadBurning. Then she vanished. Ten years on, she reappeared, to post this, and retire. The post before this one recounts her Syria experience. But read this first. http://riverbendblog.blogspot.com/2013/04/?#3554538807908354245

Just finished up a one-shot for the local RPG meetup I started.

I ran Riverbend, the Tunnel Goons based RPG about fantasy fishing adventures. It's got a fun little die-drop subsystem for the actual fishing part of the game. It's a zine game, so it can be picked up cheaply,

It went well - added 3 new players to the group.

At What Scales Does A River Meander? Scale-Specific Sinuosity (S3) Metric For Quantifying Stream Meander Size Distribution

“HIGHLIGHTS:
• Scale-specific sinuosity (S3) summarizes bend sizes of linear features and associated contributions to sinuosity across a range of scales.
• The S3 plot is analogous to a frequency histogram of bend sizes, like a fingerprint or a spectral signature
• The S3 is an easily computed metric to assess influential scales in bend patterns of linear stream features
• The paper formalizes a relation between sinuosity and fractal dimension..."

I know most people are all cracked out about some other act in town here in Cincinnati this weekend, but #Garbage is playing #Riverbend #RiverbendCincinnati tomorrow night and I can’t fucking wait.

They just posted a bunch of amazing pics to the ‘gram of the architecture in the area around 6th street in Covington and I am stupid excited.

I've just run a one-shot of a fun little #OSR game called Riverbend, where the players are villagers traveling down a fantasy river basin, exploring and fishing.

Fishing is a big part of the game.

I've posted a mini-review, and made my own custom character sheets for the game:
