a glimpse...then gone

Well, we had the sun in the sky, but blowing snow really obscured it not too long after that. Still, it was pretty amazing seeing the sun after all that time. I actually sat in my room late last night and read by sunlight instead of lamplight. The wind has dropped a bit today, but I haven't looked outside to see if the sky is overcast or not.

The Mother of Polestock concert went well last Saturday, though the crowd was really sedate. There was some dancing during the Picardis set, but not a bit for the Irish Band. We're now using a bunch of our equipment to try and record a few songs for each band in a semi-studio environment. Last night the drummer for the two bands laid down six solid tracks, which was good because it was anticipated that his contribution would be the hardest to capture. Hopefully it will all turn out sounding pretty good!

Well, I have another calibration to do out atop ARO today. I also plan on finishing up my end of season report today. I have to go back and add yesterday's power outage. One of our generators had a mechanical failure, but thankfully the various UPS systems that support my projects all properly kicked in and prevented anything from being messed up.

Funny how your calibrations seem to always line up with when mine are due...
