Great to spend time with Linda , David and Willow …
Linda had a dress out drying on the porch.. I recognized it immediatly as the dress linda wore as dianes made of honor at our wedding !
One of the motivations to come here this weekend is that Linda and David got tickets to a special production of Mesmerica by James Hood. It was at the Digital Dome Planetarium at Suny Corning. . THats about an hour and a half from Endicott. It was pretty cool. The Digital dome was a really comfy dome with planetarium seating.. and soem really good projectors. The production was about an hour of really cool animations projected in 360 degrees wiht cool spacey music.. It was really cool !
It was a great drive both ways.. the SUNY campus was very nice and quiet.. lots of deer
Tonight we went to Fushimi.. one of our favorite restaurants in the area.
The snow keeps coming. We’ve had snow cover for all of Janurary !.. its deep enough now that we can ski from our back door.. out to the feild across the street then over to the rivershore trail.
Jonesville VT.. is now a winter sports destination !
Had a fun meeting this morning,. got to learn to ‘drive’ the new simulator. Happy to see one of the demos that shannon, isa and I built beign used to help tell the planes story.. (this is the one room in the building where photos are allowed 🙂
After work I headed to UVM to watch the public talk form cousin Jon aon Planetary health. He’s helped create the feild of Planetary Health.. it casts climate change as a public health issue.. .He then uses that to cast efforts to combat climate change as making good financial sense beyond their impact on quality of life. He’s a great story teller.. he spent soem of his time laying out the climate challenge.. then talked about how we need to shape our arguments and explanations to the specific audience we’re tryign to reach . why there’s hope.
my personal favorite
