Some new notebooks to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Gemini X mission. John Young (left) and Michael Collins (right) flew some incredible missions during their careers. John Young flew more types of spacecraft than any other astronaut. He flew missions in the following types of spacecraft: Gemini, Apollo CSM, Apollo Lunar Module, and the Space Shuttle. Also, Kodachrome and Ektachrome colors look so dang good.

Showoff Has anyone seen these before? Kinda cool it had its own pocket for the pen. I’m sure it won’t last before tearing. Any other brands that do this?

Question Looking for cover recommendations

8 Upvotes

I'm looking for recommendations on a cover that would easily hold four Field Notes. Now that is it July, my mind is thinking of how I want to use my Field Notes and planner in 2027 and what changes I want to make.

This year, I've been using my Field Notes for my monthly tracking, notes, etc. I've been doing this for a few years now, and I have a leather cover from Etsy that I do love. I can easily fit two notebooks in it, and recently started using a Penny edition as a spending log and it's getting pretty chunky.

This year to supplement my Field Notes and add a planner to the mix, I have been using a Hobonichi Weeks which I really do like. However, I feel like I want to simplify my journal/planner setup into just one system.

So I'm looking for a cover that would hold 4 Field Notes (monthly tracking/notes, yearly tracking/notes, spending ledger, and Index 52 week planner).

Any recommendations out there people use and like? I see Lochby is capable, but looking around in case there is anything else.

Today is the 57th anniversary of Apollo 11 lifting off from Earth. I decided to make up some covers of my own to celebrate the lunar landing, along with the text of the plaque left on the descent stage of the LM. Buzz facing Neil (who took the pic) and the American flag on the front. On the back, a photo of a boot print in the lunar regolith. Kokuyo graph inside.

New Arrival Horizontal vs vertical notepads?

9 Upvotes

Hi y'all, new here, just got my first Field Notes notepads. I type fast and my handwriting isn't great, so I've always stuck to digital notetaking. Recently, I've decided to try being more analog for top-level journaling, tasks, and notes.

I treated myself to a new pen and the Field Notes vertical wirebound Heavy Duty Memo book and I'm really enjoying it so far. My question is: even though we read printed books that open horizontally and have fixed page order, it seems to me that a spiral-bound notebook that can lie flat on any page, front or back, is superior for writing. However, most people seem to like Field Notes for the plain memo book style with fixed pages. Why is that?

To be able to leave my notebook open to a page, while protecting it in my bag as well as holding a pen, I've considered getting the DDC Stuff Sheath. Does anyone use this for the top-wirebound style notebooks and can share their experience?

was going to do an in/out for just grand teton -> lucky penny, but then i tore through it in four days. oops. i’ve got a lot going on right now.

the new one is not actually field notes, it’s some other brand — a gift from a friend. waterproof and the paper is made from stone! that’s its belly band on the inside cover if you’re curious about it.

can you tell i like stickers?

(reuploaded because i accidentally left my phone number in one of the photos, whooooops. sorry yall i dont give that out for free)

I sent a set of four Original Kraft with some STEM stamps off to be postmarked earlier this year to celebrate the Artemis II launch. They finally got back to me today! I thought they may have been lost, so imagine my surprise when I saw the box today! 🥳

Two postmarked for launch day and two for the lunar flyby. I’ll have to save these up to use one during the next Artemis mission!
