Dang… I think I broke my toe.. (my left ‘ring’ toe.. if such a thing exists) . I accidentally banged it on a wooden stool. It hurt like heck.. but I didn’t think of it till later.. this is what it looked like after our run .. ouch.. I taped it to it’s brother on the right.. and went about my day.. THats what they’d do If I went to the doctor, anyway
Diane and I headed down to Earthkeep about 10 to begin the work on Fluffy 2.0. .we’re only making small revisions for this year. >> DIane and my mission today was too rewire the handicap lift door lights to make the door easier to open
I don’t usually work Fridays.. but today I went in for my coworker and good friends Shannon and Crawfords ‘happy last day’.. Shannon Is heading to the MAKE
Master of Arts in Design Engineering .. which is a program between Brown and RISD.. We’re all really excited for her
Crawford is finishing a gap year between High School and College as a BETA intern.. It’s easy to forget he’s just graduated high school.. and even harder to believe he’s an intern. He’s an amazingly smart, organized and self motivated guy. He’s starting at the University of Rhode Island as an Engineering student and sailing instructor (he’s good at everything, I think 🙂
We’re going to miss them both very much.. and at the same time we’re all very excited to see what they do in their next adventure !
Ed had brought cake, cookies and ice cream for the going away party.. (What a guy !).. We had a nice crown.. Lots of hugs and handshakes..
After all the hugs were given and all the ice cream eaten, Shannon whent back to her workbench one more time to finish up the awesome ‘mega demo’ she’s been working on..
It won’t be the same without her. It’s a new chapter for our work group. I’m excited about that too !
Busy day at work.. really enjoying what I’m doing now.. Caught a rainbow on my way home
My friend Liz is in town.. se\o we made a plan to meet up with our mutual good friend Doug at his new job. Doug used to be the Asst. Dean of the School of Engineering and a Statistics Prof (what are the chances of that ?!) at UVM.. He retired and now he tends bar at the Shelburne Farms Inn.. one of the most beautiful and serene places on the planet. Not a bad gig !
As I drove up I found Doug and Liz contemplating life out on the back yard.
We talked about life, robots, people, travel..
My friend Ed and wife Angela from work were there by coincidence.. which was a nice surprise..
What a cool place.. I want to bring Diane back here when our friends Paul and Paul are playing here on the weekend
