Fell in love this morning - twice! Local mom & pop car dealership around the corner from me had fully restored VW buses for sale, $39.9K (1972 olive/tan) and $24.5K (1979 white/tan). If I had that kind of cash to drop right now, one (or both) would be in my driveway today.

Made it to our viewing site. Waiting for the weather to clear. In the meantime, what would an eclipse in Texas be without moon pies? :-)

There are 2 baby owls in our neighborhood park. It’s amazing to me how well they naturally camouflage themselves.

@shanselman Welcome to Orlando! We love it at night, too. The character interactions are a real treat. (Try to get into Oga’s Cantina, if you can)

Misleading, smarmy crap like this (on otherwise legitimate sites, no less) is why I run and recommend @The_Pi_Hole.

Mystery solved! It’s got a burrow along a wall facing the woods at a neighbor’s house a few doors away.

I had a ~12” gopher tortoise come visit my house last night. It hung out for about 14 hours and has moved on (hopefully to the conservation area out back and not into the neighborhood). They’re protected here in FL so I reported seeing it to FWC and admired from a distance.

@SuneKuntz @SmartThingsBeat Cool! Unfortunately, you can’t scroll to see them all in iOS. Not cool. :-(

You can make Power BI visuals do interesting things when you've picked the wrong column for a field to be sorted by in your model...

If you want to see the Apollo 14 capsule in person, make a visit to the KSC Visitor Complex and take the bus tour over to the Saturn V center. You won’t be disappointed! (I took these pictures last month after spending the night underneath the Saturn V)
Apollo 14 splashed down in the Pacific Ocean #OTD in 1971 after a successful 9-day mission! It was the last of the Apollo missions to quarantine the astronauts upon their return. More on the completion of the mission: go.nasa.gov/3XayznR

Slept on a blanket in a field, woke up to a nice sunrise and some dolphins playing in the water, but no rocket launch today. Oh well, that’s the business. (And the dot in the picture is Artemis I on the pad. Would have been awesome to see it go. Maybe next time!)

Helped my daughter paint her senior HS parking space last weekend. She chose the design. I wholeheartedly approve. :-)

The Wizard. Aired for a single season in 1986-1987 and was abruptly cancelled midway through. The cast launched a campaign to get support just so they could finish the sole season.

My “smart” washing machine lost WiFi connectivity and the only way to fix it was delete and re-add the machine from the accompanying phone app, which also deleted all cycle and usage history even though it’s the same machine associated with the same account. That’s…not so smart.

And finally, a TV tuner card. What a monster of a board just to tune to a single channel and not even in HD. How times have changed!

Second is a @Microsoft Sidewinder joystick/mouse. It’s USB so maybe it would work with Windows 10. It’s huge, though. Almost twice the size of my hand!

I *thought* I was done. I was wrong. Found a few more relics (that I won’t keep). First is my Zip drive. Who even has parallel ports anymore?

Aaaand another *awesome* find: @WaltDisneyWorld tickets from a loooong time ago. No date and no “E” tickets left. I wonder if I could still use them. 🤔

Also found the book that came with the disks, still in plastic wrap with a certificate of authenticity on the back.

And get this - Windows 3.1 on 3.5” floppies still in the original plastic wrap! Only 6 disks to install the entire OS. (cc @shanselman @NerdPyle @CarmenCrincoli)

Today I’m going through my father’s old things and coming across some real computing gems that remind me of how I got to where I am today. First up: a Franklin 1000. One of the first computers I learned BASIC on - with 5.25” floppy drive!

Yeeeeaaaahhhhh, that disk isn't healthy. The grinding noises and corruption warnings aren't a good sign, either. Copying everything I can off it now before it bites the dust. :-/

My family and I participate in the annual @WreathsAcross Day to Remember, Honor, and Teach about our Veterans and the value of freedom. Last week we helped lay over 32,000 wreaths at Florida National Cemetery. We saved one more for today for @BobRossOfficial’s gravesite.
