MOBILE Lab Workshop

Thanks to a tip from Girl Programmer and your NSF tax dollars Southern Man got a little grant to fly up to a MOBILE Lab workshop hosted by the University of Wisconsin at Eau Claire.

Our host and one of his student assistants.

Southern Man hard at work.

It rained most of the time but that didn't stop Southern Man from picking up about a dozen geocaches during the workshop. He also came home with a shiny new WD Element external drive.

New toys!

So Southern Man got to travel on someone else's dime, geocache (and add a new state to his list), learn new stuff, and pick up new toys. Is there a better way to spend three days?

Heard your state was pounded again by severe weather. Are you okay?

Record rainfall for ANY month in stare history. Widespread flooding. More tornadoes. Or, as we say around here, Friday.

You are a part of the "bread basket" of America right? How did the crops fare? Are we in for higher prices in the Fall?

Mostly animal feed. But at least the drought is over...
