Morning all.....

Up and at 'em early this AM. Won't bore you with the details why I'm checking in so late.
For those still working, enjoy your Saturday. For the rest of us, enjoy whatever day today is on your calendars.

It's sunny, much less humid than yesterday and cool in SE NH.  74 going to 75.  I opened the bags with the new photo backdrop panels and coated them with Golden archival matte varnish.  That's what I've been using on all my backdrops, it provides good coverage, the matte coat actually makes the photos pop a little bit, and provides some water resistance for scenery work  I'll let that cure overnight and tomorrow apply at least one to the mat board.  (Idea now is to apply a panel, flip the mat board over, mist that, and put weights on that to get it to stay flat.) 

The local farm stand is advertising fresh peas, my favorite farm stand veggie.  They also have strawberries and rhubarb, in case the wife wants to make something with that.  add:  Bummer, they were out of peas!

My other project, an ADS-B (airplane transponder) receiver project is on hold.  There was a problem with the load and it might be the micro-SD cards.  So I ordered new cards (they're really cheap these days), should be here tomorrow. 

Yesterday morning, the ISP 2nd tier guy called me.  "I think I've found the problem.  Some security feature we don't use on one of our components mysteriously turned itself back on on your subnet.  No log reports, it just decided to do that.  I've disabled that, try the static IP address now."  "Yup, we're back in business.  Thanks!"  Then we complained to each other about software that changes stuff and doesn't tell you what it did.  (I use the static IP address to enable the websites I host, including for John Siekirk's "S&S Gazette" internet magazine back issues.)
