Nice quiet day around the house.\u2026 We both needed that. We did get the dogs out for a longer walk\u2026 Then we put on our skis because we knew the rain was going to take away the snow. We went to the YCCT explore some of the trails in the back.\u2026 It’s really beautiful up there\u2026 And it’s fun to be looking back towards our house from a place so close to our home that\ufffcwe’ve never seen before.\ufffc<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

One thing we saw while we were skiing was that the snow fleas were out. When I first discovered these things a couple years ago I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. There are millions of these tiny black bugs that come out of the snow and hop around\u2026 They tend to congregate in animal tracks\u2026 I think it’s because they come from the ground and the animals foot prints make a path to the soil\u2026 They’re kind of cool and somehow they kind of freak me out\ufffc<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We spent the rest of the day working on one thing or another\u2026 I did it tonight our friends Ellen Will and Uboe came over and fix dinner for us. It was really really delicious. Our friend Savanah joined us too.\ufffc<\/p>\n

We were all heading to another warm dog show this time at Zenbarn\ufffc. I decided to try my hat trick there again.\u2026 It’s not really well suited for a dark place like that\u2026 But people still liked it. I now have a bunch of different eyeball patterns on it. I really appreciate the people at adafruit who came up with the basic design\ufffc<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We got to the show just as the warm dogs were starting\u2026 I just absolutely love this band. All the folks in it are friends of ours\ufffc. But I think I would love the band even if they weren’t\ufffc<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It was fun watching people’s reaction to my hat\u2026 Several folks tried it on\ufffc<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

OK\u2026 Time for bed. We have an early morning tomorrow.<\/p>\n

More from then\ufffc<\/p>\n

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