Today was fun and hectic. I’m super busy at work but made time to tour some of my old and new friends from hack club through Beta. This group is going to be riding by train from Vancouver to Montreal on a two week odyssey of inventing.\u2026 I’m always very proud to show off the technology. We’re creating at beta.<\/p>\n

Later in the day I got a call from Diane telling me that our friends Jurgen and Luisa were at our house. I knew they were coming into town, but I didn’t realize it was going to be this afternoon. I was able to finish up my work quickly and get home to see them. You’re gonna is my old friend in collaborator who used to live in Bibb in Germany, then in Burlington and I have seen him at various places in the world since. The two of them now live in Malta. He really is one of my oldest friends.It was so good to see them !\u00a0 I was able to spend a little time with them today and we made a plan for getting together later in the week



<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the old friends kept coming\u2026 Our friend Devon dropped by. He’s here in Vermont for a while after living in Montana for a long time. Super great catching up with him.<\/p>\n

I love his\u00a0 Sam ink !

I quickly headed back to work.. It was such a hot day\u2026 But I decided I’d make liquid nitrogen ice cream (yes again) for my friends at work. It was a perfect day to do it. We gathered right outside the building. Super fun yet again.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I think thats five times.. ?\u00a0 RIght..

After work, I headed home (again) .. And picked up Diane and our young friend Finn, who staying with us for the night. We headed out to Middlesex to try a restaurant called the filling station\u2026 Believe it or not it’s a wonderful sushi, etc. restaurant in the middle of a landlocked state. We’ve heard so much about it.It was really delicious.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The place was really cute and funky. THey had soem wild bacon meets star trek art. !

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We got home just as the sun was setting. Just enough time to make liquid nitrogen. (yes\u2026 I know this is getting repetitive) with thin. Finn.. THats 6 times I think


<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We also got to show Finn our amazing glow-in-the-dark petunias.<\/a>\u2026 I don’t know if I’ve already written about these, but they are amazing. It’s a genetically engineered hybrid that took some genetic material from a glowing mushroom and spliced\u00a0 it to a petunia. It’s kind of a subtle effect but at night, it is amazing. Even more amazing when photographed.

here they are with natural light\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Here they are at night..\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gotta love science !

nite all, nite sam<\/p>\n
