A series of pictures from the Jean-Luc Picard: The First Duty exhibit at the 2019 Star Trek convention in Las Vegas, as part of the promotional push for the upcoming Star Trek: Picard show. The exhibit’s conceit is that these are items curated by Starfleet celebrating Admiral Picard’s career.
While most of the props are reproductions (the originals lost or auctioned off years ago), the uniforms on display were all costumes worn on screen by Patrick Stewart.
For the past few years, we’ve gone to Vegas for vacation, which just happens to coincide with the big Star Trek convention held annually at the Rio. Shortly after William Shatner’s panel on Saturday, the host advised that everyone would want to stay in the room for a big announcement. Alex Kurtzman emerged soon after, and after a brief preamble about Trek’s future on TV, he announced a new show focused on Captain Picard starring Patrick Stewart. Stewart emerged, and well, here you go…

Managed to snag a picture of Comet NEOWISE with the phone. Couldn’t see it with the naked eye and didn’t even realize we’d captured it until we were home and going through pictures on the computer.

Walker Lake, NV - Large desert lake in western Nevada, just south of Fallon. The West Walker River, which I’d seen earlier high in the Eastern Sierra, empties into this lake.

The Crew Chief — a thing I found while rummaging around old boxes in the garage this weekend. I don’t know who made this, but I remember seeing it in the early ‘90s. This version is from later, because someone replaced “35-10” (the real dress & appearance standard) with that weak-ass 36-2903 nonsense. Otherwise, an accurate representation of my former trade.

A 1000 piece puzzle that I picked up at #STLV a couple of weeks ago and just completed. It features posters that were created by Juan Ortiz for each episode of the original series. He’s also created similar handbills for TNG and the animated series.

A Juvenile Black-Crowned Night Heron (Nycticorax nycticorax) at the Upland Hills Country Club golf course. Taken at the pond near the 4th tee box area.
Though these birds are common around wetland areas in North America, this is the first one I’ve seen in our neck of the woods. I’m not sure where this juvenile came from, as there were no signs of any others in the area. He disappeared the next day.
B-25J 43-28204 “Pacific Princess” — This beautiful and well-maintained aircraft only saw wartime action in the movies (Catch-22, 1941, Pearl Harbor), but served as a firefighting aircraft in the 1950s. She also launched from the deck of the USS Carl Vinson in 1995 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of WWII’s end.
