The panel of five addressed the issue of writer's block. They started with the process of how to "conquer" the first … Continue reading Saturday at LibertyCon 2017

If you use active sensors to try and detect someone else, be assured they can see you twice as far away as you … Continue reading Friday at LibertyCon 2017
Fitness Update: Avoiding Con Crud
Today's fitness post is late, because it has been a busy week, and I haven't been working as far ahead as I sometimes do. It Is also later because I haven't have many of the regular fitness items to report for this post.

A Blast of the Past #99: Geauga Lake
One of our favorite finds was Geauga Lake's Wildwater Kingdom Park. Apparently Six Flags once owned an amusement park and water park at Geauga Lake, but ended up selling it to Cedar Fair, which kept the water park open but closed the amusement park, my assumption being that it was too close to Cedar Point … Continue reading A Blast of the Past #99: Geauga Lake
