So Carolyn wanted to see her horse again so we drove down to northern New Jersey to see him again at his trainers barn on a fine weekend in February 2026, here are some pictures from that trip.

We had a bit of snow today from Winter Storm Fern, maybe 30 centimeters (12 inches) or so...

Pictures of some flowers I've grown in the garden and my office and some local wildlife.

A visit to the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center in April 2019​

One of my previous interns works at MIT at the Plasma Science and Fusion Center on Albany Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He invited me to see their tokamak during a visit to Boston. It was powered down for decommissioning at the time as they were preparing to build a new super powerful Tokamak (SPARC) with their research partner Commonwealth Fusion Systems at a new site in Devens, Massachusetts.

So Carolyn has always wanted a horse and finally got one:

Although I spent 11 years working in the grocery software space I had never been to a Wegmans store. They were never one of our clients at MyWebGrocer and they don't have any stores close to Vermont, so when I spotted a Wegmans store across the street from where we had gone to eat for Thanksgiving on a trip to Pennsylvania, I told Carolyn that we had to stop there and check it out before they closed for the holiday.
