I finally pulled the trigger on Kirby, likely using the Zero One theme to help build.

I think it’ll be a solid replacement for my GoQuesting site (built in Notion, served via Super, but always a bit broken), especially since I can export all 1500+ quest pages in markdown.

Has anyone used Routes Car Rental? I’ve never heard of them, but their rates for a rental out of ORD are nearly 1/3 of even companies like Fox. 🧐 I see they have a mileage limit and take a larger than normal deposit, but…hoping someone has some experience to relate before we book.

Hmm…I’m inching closer and closer to giving Kirby a shot. Most pressingly, I need a better solution for GoQuesting, my directory of 1500+ travel quests you can adopt. I built it in Notion using database views and serve via Super, but things are broken—again—and I’ve never quite been happy there.

We’ve been going back and forth with some denied reimbursement claims with Delta, and finally decided to file a consumer complaint with USDOT’s Office of Aviation Consumer Protection. Well whatdya know, we got a phone call and email from Delta and the rejected claims were quickly approved.

I finally got around to updating the list of my various travel quests, and…uhhh…it’s become a bit ridiculous:

61 in total, 26 completed. 🫠

I’m still fixing styling and posting/updating individual quest pages, but if you want to see what a questing-crazed madman looks like, here’s your chance. 🤣

Discussing a second African safari trip…

My questing buddy @tthrash@micro.blog updated his Minor League Ballparks quest progress. Anyone else trying to get to AA and AAA ballparks?

What’s a good gift to give a one-year-old?

Because I bought her a domain name.

As far as I can tell, it’s really the only part of one’s digital identity that you can actually fully control, as opposed to just sharecrop.

I’ve finally updating my list of personal travel quests (it’s criminal that I, of all people, haven’t kept this up-to-date) and it’s a bit crazy to see that I have almost 50 of them. 50! That’s just crazy.
