Indoor pursuits

 I am getting an AI bump of hits every day.  I am still assuming the usual 3 readers.  Had a very nice day yesterday and we had 2 nice days.  Pruned all the fruit trees.  The apple tree is a mess of suckers sticking up, and I just used my nifty tiny battery chainsaw to mow them down.

All the geophysics is gone, so I'll just stick my head out the door.  Seems to be a succession of very hot and very cold weather, very polarized, just like US politics.  No Pacific moderation in sight.

The big problem is that we have big storms between the changes.  My garden is soaked, and it's no use running out for the single days of warmth.  We hope for the best.

I am back to working with my computer stuff again.  I have got instructions on how to hook up multiple I2C buses.  I thought it didn't work on my rp5, but it looks like it will.  The pain of my previous efforts is delaying me.  Procrastination is a depressive thing.  I need to cheer up.

ps.  The polar vortex fairies are up to their usual antics.  This time they have slid off the n. pole. Don't worry, they'll be as good as new next week.


ps  PV fairies must be considered to be outside the Scientific Method.  They cannot be measured directly and are only inferred to exist by influencers.  None of their actions can be predicted, or reproduced.  Since the influencers predicted a very warm year, they serve mainly as an excuse.

Wettest March since 1950 and something about worst something for 200 years. All I know is that all the dead pines in my forest fell over and I've been chainsawing for weeks now. All the empty reservoirs filled up to 75% capacity in 3 weeks.
