Almost August...

...and I'm starting to be a bit less tired after the 3 weeks of intense astronomizing (conference in Holland, summer school at Arecibo (!!!)) and somewhat exhausting return trips to Canada. I have soooo many photos to publish in albums. Coming soon. This, I think, is my first evening alone, feeling calm, for a very long time, and it's great. Plus I got some excellent errands done (soon D's 30th b-day!).

And on Friday we get the keys to our new HOUSE, if all goes well. Photos to be posted as soon as that happens. Summer in Brockville is magical btw. I don't know why we don't have more visitors. To be remedied in 9 days (in-laws + BiL to be visiting).

While waiting for more photos, here is a photo I took during my time of contemplation of whether I would be able to go on the cat walk onto the receiver platform hanging 150 m above the 305 m dish of the Arecibo observatory. I did what Pierce Brosnan did... (i.e. not what 007 did)
