In the morning I be busy with the family, cats and dogs. then cooking for company. I may very well not be near the computer all day...so I wish you all a very Merry Christmas. The following is a little holiday video I put together about ten years ago: https://videopress.com/v/ee26IBR3?resizeToParent=true&cover=true&preloadContent=metadata&useAverageColor=true Merry Christmas
Syrup
Sapping season has ended. It was an on and off experience this year, and procuction was down by about a third. But it is my most beloved late winter activity. I especially enjoy adding the product to ice cream, baked beans, and just about anything else yo can think of! Here is a video I …
Trained
I was suspicious the other day when I found the books on training pets open on the floor. My wife said she had not been reading them. So I put them back on the shelf.Then, the other day, while it stormed, I provided a warm lap for overwhelmed cats until the birds came to the …
Signs of spring?
March is a notoriously traitorous month in New England. A few years ago, I put this video together about the first signs of spring in April. This year, we seem to be heading towards an early spring. And I wonder if we'll be seeing these April scenes before the end of March

Yes, I do not labor as hard as I once did at other jobs, but I still supervise my small crew, handle technology upgrades and ensure the station automation is working. And yes, I do enjoy my job.
Play Time
The other night I was having a conversation with one of my sons. He'd found a website with numerous kits for gizmos. Whatchamacallits. and gadgets. We spent a half-hour touring the site and appreciating the goodies on sale there.
Attack of the clone kittens
When he had time to sire this bunch I don't know. But they seem to be identical to the "cute" Gray Menace, my cat from 1969 until he ascended to cat heaven in the mid '80's.
Enriched
I learned early on to always beware the quiet one. In any group of students, there was usually one that stood out by not standing out.
