Yard sale haul from the weekend. Me: "Will you take $15 for the pair?" Seller: "Do you know what they are?" Me: "Yeah, they're Egyptian canopic jars." Seller: "Will you love 'em?" Me: "Yes sir." We shook hands and they will end up in the Museum of the Impossible 🙌
Tried a new paint technique! Spoiler alert: it didn't work 😂 #artdesign #creator #painting #oops #progress

Enjoying the week at the Howard County Fair 🎉 Weather could be cooler, but awesome crowds make up for it! Back on Fri and Sat.
Town council double-checking I won't burn the place down or tell dirty jokes 😂 #museum #fire #smallbusiness #theater #sykesville
Kicked off the 80th annual Howard County Fair today! It's year 27 for me, a.k.a. 33% of the fair's existence 🤯 Back on Monday!
The rain didn't dampen the fun at Adventure Park today! Big thanks to everyone who shared their afternoon with me, especially these folks from the Theatricks circus crew 🎪🤹
My daughter made me this for my birthday. From top right: theatre, woodworking, magic, and "paint" 😂 #persistent

Did we have fun at Kat's birthday? We sure did! Last time I hung out with this family was pre-pandemic, so it was a real treat to reconnect and help them celebrate another milestone 🎉
I dunno what's more awkward: accidentally twinning with Mom, or the face I'm making 😂
I cannot say enough good things about the "Stealing Magic" documentary, and when it's available to a wider audience ya'll are gonna be hearing about it from me again.
I bought a single paving stone at Lowe's for $1.98. The cashier asked me "Would you like to sign up for a Lowe's credit card today? You could save 40 cents on today's purchase." I almost said yes.
Always fun bringing some impossibilities to the International Spy Museum. Thanks to the families of Morrison Foerster for inviting me!
Didn't get to meet Anna or Elsa last night in Annandale, but had an amazing night with this fun group of folks ♥️ It was a real treat to headline Lodge 54's first ever dinner-and-a-show fundraiser!
