Plausible Analytics Plug-in for Micro.blog
I’ve been using Plausible Analytics for over a year and have been using the Plausible Analytics Plug-in created by @lukas to add it to my blog. It hasn’t been updated for a long time and the embed code, while still working, is very outdated. I finally decided to take a few minutes to fork that plug-in and create my own Plausible Analtyics 2 for micro.blog.
It now uses the current code snippet and also sports a Plausible icon as well. Plus, I now have a plug-in in the directory. If you use Plausible Analytics on micro.blog I would definitely suggest switching.
Team Red, White, and Blue out running the Twin Cities Marathon this morning!
Friends of ours host a Marathon Party every year right around Mile 8 as the course goes along Minnehaha Creek. They put out a big speaker and play Jump Around on repeat for about an hour. It is awesome!
Twin Cities Marathon morning!
Delightful evening for a late season soccer game! Go Loons!
A very big Happy Birthday to my Mom! Doubly special that many of her sisters and her brother could come and celebrate with us! 🎂
Very happy that I found out you can get 12” firewood. This fits perfect in the sauna oven. Let it snow! 🥶🔥
Taking my (very dirty) boat in for the winter.
Got my first immersive card in Pokémon TCG Pocket tonight — Pikachu ex. The videos for these are pretty cool.
John Prine had the answer to being “too online” before being online was even a thing.
Blow up your TV, throw away your paper,
Go to the country, build you a home,
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches,
Try and find Jesus, on your own.

John Prine: Songs & Souvenirs
I never got a chance to see John Prine play. There is a list of bands that I really regret never seeing play live. Hüsker Dü is on it. So is The Replacements. And so is John Prine. When he passed away in 2020 I was sad that we lost such an amazing songwriter.
I don’t remember how I found John Prine but I know it was on a CD run that I picked up Great Days: The John Prine Anthology and listened to disc 1 of that set many, many times.
Jason Wilber and Dave Jacques both toured and played with John Prine for well over a decade. They took the stage at The Dakota and led a great evening through the Prine catalog and encouraged the audience to sing along the verses. It was a gift from them to us — to be able to hear those songs and enjoy the music even though Prine is gone.
They also raise funds for Prine’s Hello in There Foundation from each show. Wonderful stuff. 🎶
Climbing Stillwater’s Main Street Stairs.
Off to Stillwater area this morning. Starting with breakfast at Mon Petit Chéri.
It seems that Affogatos are all of a sudden popular at a number of different places. Sadly, most places that have good ice cream have terrible coffee — and vice versa. However I was very impressed with Sebastian Joe’s delicious rendition — if only they didn’t put it in a paper cup. 🍦☕️
We walked over to the Linden Hills Fall Festival to check out the 50th annual event. It was a nice neighborhood event but the main thing that we noted was Cal Pflum playing on the stage. He is very young but has a really great voice!
We found the Illuminati. 😁
Drive-thru metrics. Needs some sparklines. Too many numbers, not enough easy to read lines.
After following Tyler to Pokémon TCG Pocket I decided to also try one of his favorite games — Clash Royale. I’m a total newbie. If you play let’s connect!
