I Love to See...Going Inside Again in Ten Days


From last month's trip, it was a joy to be here with my children. Looking forward to going back later this month!

Once in a Lifetime Things


This is what we will be looking for on Tuesday Night next week.  The next time it happens, it will be 2117!  For context, Haley's Comet will be visible again in just 49 years, on 28 July 2061.


Time lapse photo of Venus's transit across the sun in 2004

Most of us have seen a Lunar eclipse.  In Maryland, we were too far East to see any of the recent solar eclipse.


But the transit of Venus across the face of the sun, we're here and alive for this one!

Last week, while cleaning the garage, I began to assemble all of my old welding stuff for Sam to have access to in the Fall when he starts school at Harford Technical.  I found my welding hood, and some replacement lenses.  We'll share it around if anyone wants to come by and see the sights after 6pm.
