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. https://www.lavacon.org/ 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.

My friend Pete Nystrom who passed away this past June was posthumously awarded with his 100th patent today . Seven of them were granted since June. He told me when I saw him in May that 100 was his goal. Congratulations! We miss you Pete.

Angie and I are back from our Thanksgiving holiday. We visited three Mesoamerican archeology sites. 1. Tikal (Guatemala) 2. Xunantunich (Belize) and 3. Teotihuacan (Mexico). We drove to Tijuana and flew to Chetumal Mexico. Rented a car in Mexico, and drove across Belize to Guatemala. Guatemala still calls to me, confirmed. The vibe at Lake Petén Itzá was much like Lake Atitlán down south, very nice. The leaves are Allspice Leaves. It tastes like Pumpkin Pie and makes your lips and tongue numb.
