Just back from helping my mom down in Boston. she’s sellign her house and mocvng to Minnesota to be nearer my sister. I’m proud of her for sleling her place, buying a new plance in MN.. and for packing up all of the stuff she’s collected after 15 years of boston. Moving that stuff is an emotional expereince.. especaiully since my dad died about 3 years ago

 

there were only two things I wated from the house (htough I seem to have come back with more than that) .. Those were the 1905 Edison gramophone my folks bought for 30 dollars at an auction in Cape cod in 1963.. and my dad’s Kayak. the HUEY 2

 

 

Here the gramophone. .. which stills sort of works!

here’s a true multimedia story.. 1905 gramophone cylinders, 1965 mag tape of the family, a random family VHS..a nd a DVD with a movie Max was in.. how cool is that >!>! 

 

 

and here’s the kayak.. 

 

and here’s a knot tied by my dad.. I couldn’t bear to untie it.. ..

 

had a good 4 hour drive home.. spoke wit a bunch of my favorite mentors about life, technology, , future, etc..

 

did have to make one pit stip.. there I realized how cool it was to look at LCD’s on gas pumps through your polarized sunglasses…

now.. why in the heck was I wearing sunglasses at 10 PM ? I’d forgotten I was still wearing them !

 

ok. almost 2m.. and i just finished working.. 

gotta sleep

 

nite all, nite sam
