Friday night – Techjam .. (and skunked !)

Woke up to a beautiful morning in Nashville. Headed home on an early flight.. worked all day on the plane which was peaceful

 

 

first stop when I got to Vermont was to go check out TechJam. First person i ran into was my friend Matt Dunne .. who’s running for Governor.. I was proud to get a sticker and a selfie !

 

 

I had fun walking around tech jam with my freind Cathy who organizes the whole thing.. we had everything from four eyed warriers to IoT Fish health detectors !

One of my fav’s was my freind Ben’s undersea submersibles. His Copany GreenSea is based here in richmond. They are retrofitting the navigation on this baby.. it’s designed to go (i think) 21,000 feet underwater !

 

here’s my colorful freind Matt behind one of bill parkers beautiful orbs

Tech jam is running tomorrow.. so go check it out. Well worth the trip !

 

Then home at last. I picked up babe on the way.. Max paid us a surprise visit.. and my Bro and sister in law joe and pat are here.. and deb rah too.. it was a spontaneous party !

 

we were sitting there eating when someone said ‘i smell a skunk’.. uh-oh.. where’s chai.. outside ?!?

 

you guessed it.. she got sprayed full in the face poor girl.. first we stuck he in the garage as we got out deskunking brigade..

 

then up in the tub.. Max looked up a deskunking recipe.. hydrogen peroxide, baking soda and soap.. coming right up

it called for normal 3% hydrogen peroxide.. but I only have 28% (dangerous).. I diluted it down to 3% .. but managd to splash myself in the process… Ouch !!!! burned myself pretty nasty

 

we all chipped in while Diane scrubbed and chai shivvered

 

 

soon Chai was smelling like a rose again.. or at least like a dog !

 

quite a nite

 

ok.. sleeping in my own bed.. wonderful

 

nite all, nite sam
