This week I really enjoyed the first smells of spring as my cold subsided and I got outside. The weather has been beautiful, following some great storms. Today was so nice in fact, I went Geocaching after work. I rode my bike down to the big park on Windsor and had a really enjoyable time. For those interested in Geocaching, I highly recommend using the Google Earth KML file to visualize local cache locations and find convenient targets.

The Laser Galvo project is still going on. As you can see above, I got a special very fine tap in which I will use to thread the holes in the milled aluminum, once that work is done.

One special note about the photographs above; I took them with a Kodak Professional DCS 330 Digital camera, then proceeded to crop them to 2×3. It’s lots of fun to be able to use depth-of-field in a meaningful way again. And the colors are Fantastic. I forgot how great pictures through this old camera could be.

Now on to a beautiful evening of Coding.

  1. Speaking of geocaching, where is that park you mentioned in Monticello? What is it?

  2. Matt, you must be thinking of Allerton. It’s actually quite a bit more than a park–and located just outside of Monticello. There is certainly Geocaching opportunity there. It looks like there are at least 10-14 caches in and around the Allerton area.
