It’s supposed to be below 90 today, for the first time in several days. This morning, the marine layer of coastal cloud cover survived past 6:00AM. It has provided a whiff of cooler temps … and it is much welcome.

Here is a thermal #typewriter from the 80s, a #Canon Typestar 5 Deluxe. In original box with all accessories and manual. Fully functional. I got a box of thermal paper off Amazon to test it. Another ShopGoodwill find, it can run off batteries or A/C power. It’s really quiet, other than the keys.

Found out a neighbour's daughter used this oversized green Hermes Ambassador #typewriter I donated to youth club, she absolutely loved this. Plus, she writes fiction!

Decided to lend them a 1950s British Imperial Good Companion 4. Support young writers, always. (Especially in the AI crap world)

1940’s Smith Corona Silent (Trusty Steed)

I started out with this machine & it’s taught me so much. It’s such a joy to use it every time!

Have I mentioned that it’s hot, here in San Diego? I may have forgotten.

By the way, which one of you forgot to sacrifice a goat or a virgin or a virgin goat to the sun god/s to keep it/them happy?

Found a vintage Remington that clearly doesn't do autocorrect. If this typewriter could talk, what embarrassing 1920s typo would it confess to? #VintageVibes #Typewriter #Throwback #Photography

40yrs now in San Diego, and this is without doubt the worst heatwave I’ve yet to experience - and I know more and worse are undeniably on the way.

this old girl is ready to be reunited with her family - it was truly an honour working on her and becoming a part of her story

leaving my own note, 70 years later, for the next time she's serviced - I probably won't still be around, but it warms my heart to get to be a part of history

There are times, when the sun is at the right angle, where the red ink portion of the ribbon glows like it is on fire, or is the literal blood flowing through the machine - an open vein. I’ve never been able to get the phone’s camera to accurately capture it & likely never will.
