chilly at the start
of an expected cool day,
this marks October

dull, muted colors
adorn the trees this autumn
from a dry summer
On this first day of the #writeout project, I was inspired by a ramble video of a teaching colleague to write a song for Write Out (still tinkering with some final things) -- Grab Your Boots (It's Time To Write Out) https://play.soundslides.com/B6pDmd6X

the forecast is rain,
followed by quite a bit more,
a fall nor'easter
@dogtrax I was thinking about you while working on this post. I was wondering...why would anyone want to read this? It's "off-brand" for my readers.
And then I thought back to playing and learning with CLMOOC, DS106, Webmaker, VineOffs, and others, and realized that we've all been moving in this direction. :)
@Wiobyrne I just finished Tim Berners-Lee's @timbl interesting new book -- This Is For Everyone: The Unfinished Story of the World Wide Web -- and he ends on an optimistic note that, to me, resonated with your Homelab post, of getting back to making. He writes about individuals having more tools for privacy and more control of their data, freeing us up to be creative again. I want to believe in this, that this is the direction we are heading (but honestly, I am just not sure). #clmooc
flowers bloom briefly
before the winter winds blow,
stretching out fall's sway
darker earlier,
lighter later for morning,
mark fall's progression
chill on equinox
overnight, upper forties
marks arriving fall
In my monthly newsletter I pointed to a blog by #clmooc member @sheri42.bsky.social & to the DS106 Daily Create. Both share creative activities that could be used in #tutor #mentor & learning programs, as well as in schools & home. See the newsletter at tutormentorexchange.net/2025-newslet...
I've been connected to a variety of educators since the late 2000s via on-line groups on different platforms. I met the #etmooc and #clmooc group in 2013. Many of those people are part of #DS106. I keep encouraging people involved in other tutor, mentor programs to connect the same way I have.

a sliding cold front
delivers needed rainfall,
breaking summer drought
cool temps overnight
kept me snuggled in my bed
longer than normal
skimpy showers fail
to overcome sunbaked grass
under summer skies
