I had my latest Covid-19 booster on thursday and it knocked me completely flat all friday. This morning we’re sitting down with a nice cup of tea and trying to recover.

Wabash FA-1 #607 sits in (I think) Decatur, IL sometime around 1960. Isn’t that a lovely paint scheme? The boxy shape of an Alco FA really goes well with the blue/white/grey Wabash paint scheme, don’t you think?

I had to go to the social security offices to update my name and correct my sex on my social security record, so why not go to gresham so I could get a moderately-long ride in?

#579 was in the shops in the fall of 1972, and was lined up next to a small collection of retired power. Three years later 579 was gone as well :-(

A mac that’s newer than the 2012’s I’ve been using. This one has nothing replaceable on it, and to replace the battery (which this one needs) involves taking the entire computer apart to even get at the battery, and then you need to dump acetone on it to melt the glue that sticks the battery into the case.
It’s not one of Apple’s finer moments, but Dust Mite has doesn’t need a computer for very much.
