but then is it ever otherwise \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
I’ve been doing a lot of house related work as we get the upstairs and kitchen floors updated. Got to shingle the catio roof and deal with a few hanging details in the finished part of the basement as well.<\/p>\n
I have been updating a couple of wargames that I’ve very much enjoyed playing in the past. I’ve bought the latest edition of Federation and Empire<\/a>, a Star Trek (the old series) themed strategic board game that I owned the original version of, but never got a chance to play as it came out towards the end of my time in college and I never found the time.<\/p>\n I’m in the process of buying the updated pieces of the tactical game from the same company,\u00a0Star Fleet Battles<\/a>\u00a0which I played extensively in high school and occasionally in college. I love the game though it is rather complex in its full form.<\/p>\n I’m hoping that as an ’empty nest’ parent I may find time and locate opponents for games like this in the relatively near future.<\/p>\n I also want to see what sorts of things I can put together as networked, computer managed games inspired by these old board war-games. I’ll probably do something completely crazy and impractical like building a virtual game table in VR as a sandbox project. Stay tuned and if time permits, things may happen.<\/p>\n Haven’t been doing any significant photography as there have been too many other things going on to eat up time and energy. I still need to post process photos from the British Isles cruise and many other things. I will get back to that stuff, just not likely any time too soon.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" but then is it ever otherwise \ud83d\ude42 I’ve been doing a lot of house related work as we get the upstairs and kitchen floors updated.
