Done with a hot and rather unproductive weekend. Definitely a summer time feel to things at the moment. Hard to get any momentum going. Did a little somewhat random technical reading. Got the power miter saw set up on the saw horses in the garage to cut the pieces to replace the porch parts that are in bad shape (but did not cut anything).

Binge watching old episodes of Supernatural and playing games mostly. We ate icy fruit pops, had hot-dogs and some delicious ham and cheese treats that Lorna made.

I did swap out the in-law’s recliners and demo the old ones.

Still need to get going on PHP code for RESTful interfaces to the back-end for the cluster game. I really want to get this stuff going, but suspect it will take the approach of fall to get things rolling again.

Turned off the firewall rule that exposed port 80 on my externally facing server machine for the moment. Started the process of setting up a DMZ port on the router. Not quite sure I’ve got that right yet…may want to run that port somewhere in the house to make testing easier. I am realizing that I’d prefer not to have my externally facing machine on my main network. More to come as I figure out the routing setup needed to make the new interface useful.
