Another Gallery of loose photos.  There are some gems, and there are some random photos.

AI-Generated login screen background image at one of my office computers.  This image is great!  It's drawn in the image of Procol Harum's 1973 album "Grand Hotel".

My old home UniFi equipment.  I love this ecosystem, and so I used these devices in other places so that I could upgrade my home network.

 

Wraps that Haocheng made at the lake house

 

 

 

Mabel lying on an old mattress in the attic of the lake house.

 

Attic computer setup.  There have been times that I've accomplished a lot of work from up here.

The UniFi gateway I am lending the Titan Office.  This is the UDM-Pro I formerly used at my house prior to upgrading it to a UDM-Pro-Max.  This gateway and it's access point and switches are very useful together.

 

My birthday cake.  Thank you, Liang and Jun

The VHF Motorola XTL5000 that sat in a box on my floor for approximately six months before I set it up on my desk at home

 

I was taking aerial photos of a house, and I managed to get my drone stuck on the roof when it crashed into small tree limbs.  Fortunately Tommy recovered it, and everything was ok.

 

A stack of FM transmitters

 

Radio that Tom gave me for my birthday.

 

Inside one of the transmitters.  I replaced the fan with a quieter model.

These couches on my covered patio are always full of dog fur.  It's difficult to keep them clean.

 

A device I found online to shut off small audio appliances using a small trigger voltage from an amplifier.  I am using this on my shed stereo to control the power of my audio equipment when I turn off my amplifier.

 

One of the culprits of why the couches are dirty.

Familiarizing myself with a Supra Key Box.

 

Air conditioner I gave my friend, Ron.  This was installed in a rental house, but it was removed before it was ever put into service.  This made way for a new mini split system.
