Trip to Ottawa + getting things done
Vanessa and I rented a car yesterday and drove to Ottawa to pick up a fibre channel disk tray for my tachyon driver project. We had timed the trip perfectly so we ended up driving in a snow storm. Lovely.
We stopped in Rigaud on the way to work on an M-100 organ which couldn't start. Weak spring on the tonewheel generator drive shaft combined with lack of oiling meant the start motor couldn't engage.
In Ottawa we had an awesome chinese dinner at Richard Briggs' place. Good to see Carole and Booboo again. mort, Stephanie and scjody were also in attendance. Good hang.
After dinner we went to Patty Bolands with Matthew and Danielle. And then we drove back home. Fortunately the roads were clear.
We still had the car today so we decided to make good use of it. Bought some more panel heaters at Reno Depot, stocked up on produce and I bought a new UPS for the lab. Returned the car to the rental place and went out for sushi. Nice!
