So yeah I tend to forget to keep the site updated with the latest goings on, so I figured I’d post up a quick update with real-life things. Many of my projects have been put on hold for summer fun, although it’s been so hot out that I haven’t really done much anyway. Here in Eastern PA it’s been in the 80-90 degree range for nearly 3+ weeks now, and we’ve barely seen any rain in the last 5+ weeks. I don’t think we’re alone; I watch some social media even from places like London who seem to be in the same boat. Yet some states down south seem to be dealing with a lot of flooding; go figure. I haven’t cut the grass in over the month, although recently we got enough rain to make it grow a little (in patches) so I guess I have to bust out the mower at some point.
I was going to say I haven’t done much, but I can’t really say that; since my last post, I’ve camped 3 times, attended Field Day with the Phil-Mont Radio Club (where I also brought a Teletype Model 32 back to life and got it on the air), had some out of town friends come for a visit, did up my front yard for the Shapiro Superhero Run, entertained a friend’s kid for a week, picked up some more nerdy bits and #Teletype junk, and got to go to the Telephone Collectors show as well as a couple hamfests.
Lately though things have calmed down to a crawl, which I’m not too fond of sometimes lol. Again it’s been too hot to get anything done outside to the cars or even ride the motorcycle, so I’ve mainly been messing around or driving around in the AC instead. Part of me is looking forward to the fall, but part of me doesn’t wanna give the summer up either.
Anyhow…I’ll try to backfill some of the events and highlight a few things, so look for some more posts in the near future.
