Rainy Day
The picture is of my bed covers airing out yesterday when it was sunny. The dragonfly must have thought it a good place to get a tan. It's difficult to get over how much detail four megapixels can catch, especially on intricate natural things like the wings of this insect.

Today we had heavy showers all day. I had hoped to get a lot of work done on my boat, but did very little. I constructed a new NiCad pack for the radio, but that's about it. The big boat is also out of commission as of last week, when the starboard prop shaft loosened from the hull. Maybe getting all the boat stuff done this weekend was too optimistic. Most of this boat is three years old and due for an overhaul. I'll have to take it slowly, carefully.

The album downloaded in the last entry is St. Matthaeus: Passion BVW244, by J. S. Bach. It is quite an album. This is the Leonhardt version. I've learned that in this recording he used classical methods only: key-less trumpets, hair strings, and a boys' choir for the chorus. This really sets this apart: the sound is almost surreal. It is comforting to see that the Musepack format is actually open-sourced. It does sound good, and I was worried for a while that it was not free.

The week at work is already looking busy, even though it has not started yet. The projects just lined up over the weekend. But, I got nearly 36 hours of sleep this weekend, so I'm ready for the challenge.
