I’m trying to relaunch this site after a several year hiatus. Bear with me as I move some content over from other sources and get settled here. It’s been far too long since this web developer actually had a functioning web site.

A Total Eclipse of My Heart

We gathered in great numbers. Most of us had never seen a sight quite like this. We came together for a total solar eclipse. It covered the entire continental US on August 21, 2017. We were down in Columbia, SC where we would see 2 minutes and 30 seconds of totality. There were many others […]

It’s never too late to start
