• Sister Joyce has a great nose for real estate .  And once she sniffs them out , she has a great eye to judge them . The beginning of the year ,  we purchased a derelict old dairy along Bear Creek Park in Lakewood in a short sale . The 7 acres are about the area of 20 lots on the adjacent streets . We've renovated the modest house on the property and the stable . We are finishing up the bunkhouse now .  All the horses , and most of the dogs and cats have now moved down there .

• I got myself invited to the venerable Minnowbrook APL implementers conference in the Adirondacks the third week of September where I'll be presenting my progress on 4th.CoSy and picking some of the brightest minds who actually know how you are supposed to implement a language . I'm strongly thinking of avoiding TSA's humiliating sheeple training by renting a car and taking a couple of weeks revisiting old haunts and friends around from Chicagoland to NYC , and back thru Kentucky .
