Guess who this is:
Fortunately it is not a 3d photo, or Irena would have been terrified:
A slightly different view of the guy who owns those teeth, here finalizing the circuitry for the Hot Tub solar collector:
I got the evacuated solar tubes mounted right above the hot tub:
These plots show the various sensors. Temp2 is the water temp out of the tubes, Temp3 is the hot tub temp, TD23 shows the difference (pump relay stays on as long as that number is positive):
This guy was skeptical that all that complexity would actually work:
When I told him all that data was stored in ‘the cloud’, he threw up seeds in amazement (the clouds he knows don’t talk to hot tubs):
This guy was so amazed he forgot to chew the sunflower seed before he swallowed:
As you might have guessed, I recently moved the bird feeder to hang off the roof right next to our windows, so now they can watch us watch them:
Our friend Marie has the cutest little Dotson. This is how he rides when she rides:
We just finished a fun 3 day visit with friend Jim. We went skiing at Deer Valley, one of the resorts by Park City:
Jim got a high tech fitting for some custom, computerized fitted ski boots. After detailed measurements, they inject foam into his boots to form around his feet:
Was just enough snow to have fun. The slopes are melting fast, will close next weekend:
For the past 2 years we have been watching this elusive Calico cat wander around our yard. Helen was convinced she was feral. No tag, very skittish, rarely seen. Last week, all of the sudden, she starts responding to Helen meow calls and becomes a completely different cat, adventuring in our house without much concern:
Unlike all other cats I know, she will take all the attention we can dish out:
When we get tired of petting her, she will fall asleep on the couch:
She is a mystery. We haven’t let her stay overnight or unattended. Helen put a collar asking if she has a name in hopes of hearing from her owner, if she has one.
In news from CA, Nick and Chloe just moved from San Jose to San Francisco so Chloe can be closer to her job’s new office (walking distance!). And Nick just published the book he wrote last summer on as an ebook on Amazon, a fun read!
