Well, another week has passed by, and I have been doing OK this week. It certainly helped that I was able to head out to Long Island and see Heidi and Gary last Tuesday. We were meeting in Port Jefferson, which meant driving past Stony Brook University...it felt weird not to be turning into the campus....many found memories there.

I've also picked up some portable sound recording equipment, an older Zoom H1 for about $60, and a Lav mic. I also picked up an action camera that does 1080p. I plan to mount the camera on the dune buggy RC car that I have, 1/12th scale, and make some videos with it. The next sunny day I will try to get out and do some of that, and then post it on my YouTube channel..

This week is shaping up to be fairly good, and I hope to be able to get my aunt out for a new passport photo. Then we mail off the app & her old passport, and with any luck, have her new passport in 30 days or so. At that point, the weather should be good enough, and we will be bringing her up to Ottawa to visit for a while.

Tomorrow, I am thinking of picking up a new iPad. I have an iPad mini, but for the software I want to run on it is a little cramped on the smaller display. So the new iPad 6 has a faster CPU, and is the same size as the older iPads, 9.7". If I do, then I will be selling my iPad mini.
