Very busy day here in Cambridge… I actually didn’t even have time for lunch lovely Diane brought me over some food. It’s so nice when she gets to travel with me

I did get to go over and see the new office space for the Mit QY bridge. It was so great getting our own space. Here’s Josh the proud leader showing us around

Afterwords Diane and I went to legal Sea Food because she really wanted to try lobster. It had been at least 20 years and I didn’t know lobster… It was fun and kind a weird

After dinner I took Diane into the basement tunnels under building 66 to see the interactive art. It’s great they are VR stuff that I had seen last night with Hendrik. It’s really amazing

Since we were down there we spent a good 40 minutes exploring the tunnels under Mit and went all the way over to mass Avenue. I haven’t been down there in 40 years and now with the Internet it was easier to navigate. We saw all sorts of amazing things including a blacksmithing shop a Glashop a bunch of radioactive stuff very very cool and mysterious. And hardly anyone down there at all.

OK that is it time for bed. Tomorrow is another day… (what a weird expression)

Night all, nite sam

Hello from a very cold and windy Cambridge. It’s above zero but really strong winds… It feels like it’s probably a 20 below zero wind chill. I understand it’s even much colder at home. Diane and I are down here for a couple of days. The drive down was really tough. The roads were not very well cleared because of the cold weather and blowing snow. There were many accidents.

It took us over 5 1/2 hours to get down which is two hours longer than usual.

Tonight I helped host a meeting of “the generator”… It’s a January term group that meets to talk about their independent AI based projects. We were the sponsors at tonight’s meeting. Attendance was on the lower side because of the really crazy weather… But even so we had a great quorum and our panel in the generator members had a really good time.

We all went out afterwards for a nice dinner. On the way Hendrik showed us some wonderful pictures in one of the many basement tunnels that connect all the buildings here. They were all in Hanst with augmented reality using an app on your phone. It was really amazing

The guy next to us in our Airbnb is smoking a whole lot of high-quality pot… I think we’re getting off just being next-door.

So it’s off to dreamland…

It snowed all night… I think we’ve gotten about 2 feet by now. And the temperature has not gone above 3° today. It’s beautiful. We’re enjoying staying inside and going outside only to shovel.

The pile from the plow and our driveway is as tall as me. I remember the kids making snow forts out of these things… We crawl underneath and spend all day making tunnels.

We spent the day tinkering… I finished doing some work on my propane shooter to give it a little bit more safety and a longer quick release propane hose. I also finished a propane water heater to keep the tanks warm

We cleaned out the “old lab”… Which is one of the most his Storico rooms in our house. It’s been a kitchen, the pottery studio, a bedroom, a laboratory/workshop, a ski repair room, and now it is a huge historical archives. We managed to clean it out quite nicely today. No great fines but now the floor is clear!

Diane just finished making her first batch of kimchi… The house smells like a Korean restaurant which is pretty nice.

Now I’m going to go try to take a bath and get all relaxed but still stay up long enough to see the lunar eclipse… That’s at 11:30… Not sure what my odds are 🙂
