It’s gonna be this big! The new @lowellobservatory #ADC #AstronomyDiscoveryCenter https://theta360.com/s/hUs5Rw7pMuEe1JGznsmDYzY1Y?utm_source=app_theta_tumblr&utm_medium=social

This is not a flattering photo for anyone, but it is bliss for me. We are off duty and these three @GoalBusters will do whatever the hell we want! I’ve called this house my home for decades. It is still authentic #bourbonstreet. #erinrose https://theta360.com/s/bVXVf2iYrzcNPmv6tA39YBMum?utm_source=app_theta_tumblr&utm_medium=social

It’s gonna be a big! AND It’s a #BFD! @aliceferris gave me the best #Valentines present ever! She told me we were naming the @LowellObs #UniverseTheater #MissionControl! I got to stand in that space for the first time yesterday. #breathtaking https://theta360.com/s/eJVN7lbS00sXzhu7Dv25uLA8m?utm_source=app_theta_tumblr&utm_medium=social

Big organizations always make the most money, while the smallest organizations do the most good with the least reward. I am proud to have spent the last few days helping those who serve. It is what we do. https://theta360.com/s/4EL1zoUmLCUXP2Gg844LoxQlE?utm_source=app_theta_tumblr&utm_medium=social

She gets me. @aliceferris understands my need for new things and exotic diversions. She gifted me a half dozen #Mangosteen. I finally remembered to take a picture before I ate the last two. Thanks Alice! You took me back to the #Durian Fresh Fruit Festival in #Bangkok #Thailand, on a night that I experienced a dozen new things I never knew I would love, never knew, would become a part of my life. That fruit festival changed my worldview. #goalbustersworldtour (at Flagstaff, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpqqxlPPcVH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Our new favorite #Thai restaurant in #Arizona, and our second favorite in the US, This is Lom Wong. #Phoenix has a new treasure!

2 hr layover in Charlotte, time for a proper shoeshine! (at Charlotte Douglas International Airport - CLT) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co2zTOZu65B/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A sweet surprise as we started our day with the @childcancerfund in #jacksonville #florida! It’s the perfect donut for me. I rarely eat donuts but can never resist a free #bostoncream #donut. This was even better because it’s heart shaped to keep me celebrating #valentines week. And the fresh fruit soothed my donut munching guilt enough that I ate two of them! #Love my job!

That’s more like it! Charlotte to Jacksonville free upgrade to first class, my first of 2023. So much better than Phoenix to Charlotte. Alice had to share her seat on that leg with a woman who overflowed into her space. Off to @orsayjax for a regenerative dinner. #CLT #jax ##phx #flg (at Jacksonville, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CotHHJVuB8b/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I thought I would say "Merry Christmas," but that didn't capture my feelings. (I took this screen capture today when I surprised my family with my last "Jim did what?" holiday gift.) #christmas #happyholidays (at Flagstaff, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmm_Ai5vaK-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We got adopted at The #SonsofNorway #KringenLodge 25 in #Fargo by Mary, her husband, our bartender, a visiting Swede, a husband who liked pickled herring and his wife who wondered who the Asian woman was who gave it to him and The #TorskKlub! https://theta360.com/s/FHYd5CSs0IAb05k8OMywIYzY?utm_source=app_theta_tumblr&utm_medium=social

I love @krollsdiner! If you’re visiting Fargo for the first time, you’re probably looking for interesting things to do that you’ve never done before. When it comes to restaurants, follow the locals. I loved everything about Kroll’s. I love the team, I love the atmosphere, I love the food, I love the prices and I love the locals! I thought the septuagenarian sitting next to us was hilarious! When our server greeted he and his wife, and asked “how are you doing?“ He responded “Pretty good, but it’s a little warm out there.“ Yes, 17°F is a little warm for a #Fargo resident. Be sure to order every “home-cooked“ dish you have room for and do not miss their #rootbeerfloat. #knoephla #fleischkuechle #kuchen #mushrooms #friedmushrooms #germanfood (at Kroll’s Diner – Fargo) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClkFIWlPVtA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Red River Zoo, #Fargo, ND. It’s almost #Thanksgiving. It’s cold. We had the #zoo to ourselves and that was awesome! https://theta360.com/s/qQNlj5DmUnJTYUY3nVvJ89fgO?utm_source=app_theta_tumblr&utm_medium=social

That was a blast! We had so much fun meeting so many fabulous Fargo fundraisers! Here are a few photos from @afpihq’s #NorthernPlains Chapter celebration of #NationalPhilanthropyDay #NPD in #Fargo #NorthDakota. We honored @moorheaddairyqueen #philanthropist owners for their years of dedicated support for #fargomoorhead. (at Radisson Blu Fargo) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClG6tvJuy-6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

There it is! Our home tomorrow is the @radissonblufargo, We're in #Fargo #NorthDakota to deliver the opening session for @afpihq Northern Plains Chapter as they celebrate National Philanthropy Day #NPD! Thanks for the invite @travisonmic! We can’t wait to see old friends and make some new ones! I hear @prairiepublic will be in the house! #moorhead #philanthropy (at Radisson Blu Fargo) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClDXp6_u3Yp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
