    This is one of the weirder truckloads I’ve taken camping with me. Logistics, Amirite?

    I have the prototype for the kite mount assembled. Can’t wait to give this thing a try this weekend while we’re in the Outer Banks!

    We’ve cleared most of our belongings leftover in our storage shed in Dover. I have 4 solar panels that I need to either sell, store, or use. I have our travel rig with me right now, so I’m thinking it’s time to mount them to the roof. I think I can get all 4 mounted, but it’s going to be reeeeeeeeally tight. Hoping I can because 1200w on this rig would be amazing.

    We decided to take the travel rig, and spend a few weeks in my hometown in Ohio. It was time to mix things up a bit, and we have some a storage shed full of our house stuff that we don’t really want anymore. It’s time to get rid of it. Naturally, we’re going to visit with family and the like while we’re here, too.

    It’s raining, and the power just went out. One convenience about living in a camper is that we basically go into boondocking mode. The fridge kicks into propane, lights run on battery, and our Jackeries keep everything else running in the meantime.

    30 million people on threads overnight. 30 million people have joined a protocol, that if we assume their promise to federate is true, will be joining the fediverse soon. This may age poorly, but it’s hard for me to not look at that as a win for the open web.

    I’ve been making judicious use of the MultiTimer app to help keep up with the litany of eye drops I need to put in my eyes, all of which are on different schedules. I use this app all the time for things like this. Such a good tool.

    LASIK

    I got LASIK yesterday, and for the first time since 1994, when I was 6 years old, I am able to see without corrective lenses. It’s been an exciting, and surprisingly emotional experience for me.

    My eyes are suuuuper dilated and I can’t read the text in my screen without making the text size much, much bigger. Today, this is temporary, but it’s a stark reminder that accessibility is so important. So grateful I could make the text size bigger on my screen in the meantime.

    One kinda neat thing about this camper is the wall that divides our bedroom from the living space has a TV that can rotate around and be used in either room. This is the first time we’ve had a tv in our living area, and it feels…weird? Like it doesn’t belong here, or something.
