Headed back to the west coast tomorrow morning. It’s been nice seeing everyone but as holiday vacation always goes most of the time was spent driving around trying to see everyone. We had a good party at Dave’s house on Wednesday and got to see a bunch of the old kids, at least the ones that don’t currently hate each other, sheesh. Notably Rob managed to not die on Halloween when a power line fell on his head due to a car accident. Electricity came out his arm requiring a bunch of reconstructive work. Such that everyone was used to arm injuries and I don’t think I showed anyone my laceration. Weird how you lose touch with shit though. Turns out Dustin’s mom died a year ago and some how many of us didn’t know. Silly social bullshit I guess.

Good times ahead though I think.

Looking forward to seeing the friends again and getting back on a horse or two. Been hanging out with Maria again which is just wonderful, hopefully that lasts. Lots of plans, including trips to PDX and back to SFO soon. Gotta fix the truck and get in some snowboarding too. I did a little work on Grampie McLellan’s glass cockpit on his kitplane, trying to work out the calibration on the sensors for the EFIS One system. Amusingly I can’t help but think about EFIS One without thinking about Aegis One. Hopefully that’s not a sign of any kind.
