A couple of pictures of our place at the time of my 64th birthday. I had a great birthday. Lorena and I went out with our friends, Bob, Gena, Stan, and Diane and our ministers, Gary and James for an absolutely stellar steak. It feels really good to be this age. It took me way longer than it should have to figure out that you need to enjoy the age you are because there is no other option other than to not enjoy it.
Day: September 28, 2019
I have written for quite awhile, but I think it is time to break the hiatus. Nothing much has changed other than that things have incrementally moved forward. I have finished my application to the University of Nebraska Lincoln for a PhD in Natural Resources. My work will predominantly be dealing with the remote sensing of water scenes with cameras to make hydrological measurements. I have actually started evaluating data and building infrastructure to due systematic analysis of a particular set of images at a highly visible site that I hope to be able to talk about more fully very soon.
In addition, I have just purchase my first textbook to get started on the study of hydrology. The name of the book is Fundamentals of Open Channel Flow. The reality is that I am absolutely clueless about this topic and am very much looking forward to figuring out what it is all about. I look forward to posting more about the pain of learning this material because it certainly looks fairly obtuse and obscure!
