Life update

More than a month since the last post. I must bow to pressure from my vocal fan base (Hi Anna!) and appease y’all with an update.

So, let’s see.

  • We moved to Las Cruces, NM. I’m learning all about evaporative coolers.
  • I’m (still) looking for a job.
  • We went to Europe – pictures soon in the Pictures section.
  • I’m considering going back to college – there’s one just a few blocks away, offering a BS in Aerospace Engineering. Monday we’re taking a campus tour and talking to financial aid people.
  • The Ghia EV project is on hold until we identify a source of funding to continue it.
  • I bought a ticket into space on the first flight out of the New Mexico Spaceport, now called Spaceport America. It only cost me $50. Unfortunately, it’s for a business card weighing at most 1 gram, and not for my own body. That refinement also awaits a funding source, and a suitable vehicle. On the plus side, this encouraged me to design some really nifty business cards at iPrint.com.

That’s about it for now. Check back later if you want to see the Europe pictures.

About Doug

I grew up an Air Force brat and have visited every European country except those once behind the Iron Curtain (they wouldn't let my father in for some reason). Now I'm enrolled in the Aerospace Engineering program at NMSU in Las Cruces, NM.
