LavaCon 2025

I spoke at the LavaCon this week. My presentation was very well received. There were well over 100 folks who chose to attend my presentation. Afterwards we had a supplier meeting in Cartersville and a hike up Pine Mountain. It was good to enjoy some brief moments with a llama as part of the conference. And it was good to meet up with lots of folks I have got to know over the years.

It is the weekend again. We had our first snow this morning and I was out back with the Jeep early. I dressed for the cold and it triggered a nerve or two. First of all it wasn't really cold and that it was so humid even though it was sort of cold. Hypothermia is much more likely when things are damp. In fact, most cases of hypothermia involve moisture, not cold, as the primary constituent.

It is great to have robust internet (actually working) and the varied electronic devices accessed of late. I mounted the flat screen tv on the wall and I triaged the Fisher amp that gave me a smoke genie last Saturday morning, weird. Don't know what caused it besides me flicking a switch or two. DC coupled amps can be problematic. I may have to upgrade to a pair of McIntosh 275s to go with the "unsmoked" McIntosh Preamp I still have in the array.

I had the strangest dream last night. I was in a novel about a wierd evacuation from a polar research station. Coincidentally, McMurdo has been plagued with bad weather. The photo shows the view outside the shop (Sent to me from a friend). It gets Cold in the shop. It makes it hard to concentrate on anything when it gets like that.

I am doing this and that around the farm. Professor (alpha llama) decided he wanted to talk this morning and I snapped a bunch of pics. The pic I have there is just as he told a joke. Can you see it?

The woods pic needs a title perhaps "Change of Season".

Archie the cat is hanging out.
