Had a lovely vacation in Connecticut over Easter. Jodi and I took time to work in walks and runs in parks, including this lovely hike through some extensive trails in the woods. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1645615662742503424/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/af8db020d6ce0cc0e73e126bdd053a036b217232a51c661dd04f06acde8422f9/view -

We capped off the trip with an easy air trip from Boston -> Toronto -> Sudbury. It was lovely coming in to our final destination. https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/8cbe4b15f9cda2990c4949da502b7523539698f483443980a83ed1f8eeba0bb3/view -

From jsnell@zeppelin.flights on Mastodon: Seconding @ dmoren ’s request here - anyone have a good iPad app that reads ePub files, lets you annotate them, and lets you export the annotations? Books has apparently lost this feature. https:// zeppelin.flights/@dmoren/11015 8960962175569 -

It is so nice to be at my family home and to visit with my parents again. The long separation imposed by the pandemic was hard. -

From mpi_grav@social.mpdl.mpg.de on Mastodon: What are the plans for future gravitational-wave astronomy? One exciting project to look forward to is LISA (Laser Interferometer Space Antenna), the planned space observatory which will observe low-frequency gravitational waves. ➡️ https://www. lisamission.org/ # FutureFriday # Waiting4O4 # O4 -

Good flight from Toronto to Boston. Got to watch another plane land at the same time on a parallel runway. Looking forward to sleep! https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/8faf979fa732de4a764149059245dd460110b823de70f06556134bee989a8064/view -

Well, we hoped to get out of Toronto on standby on one of the two Boston flights in between our original one and the rebooked 5:20pm flight … but that didn’t work out. At least we have a view while we wait for the rebooked flight! https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/9b84ebce84cb601ba41f3e712b0203787fda0ac5d6edaf236ffe2054f0b3e592/view -

Had a surreal moment in the Toronto-City airport where I heard snippets of a conversation somewhere behind me … words like “analysis” and then talking about a number of “jets” to be reconstructed … and suddenly realized this must be an LHC collider physicist. Didn’t get to introduce myself, as I did not want to interrupt, but you gotta love moments like that. -

Landed in Toronto at the “Toronto-City†airport (on a little island just off the coast). Really nice airport! Jodi comes through here frequently but this is my first time. Looking forward to (hopefully) getting to fly standby on an earlier flight to Boston. https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/e690f35fa3c17eeeba3db2afc4e4e6817761485518e558d69baa8f58e1ae4f33/view -

Getting ready to fly from Sudbury -> Toronto -> Boston. Delays incurred from the ice storm yesterday will make today more complicated than we wanted, but we are excited to see my parents in Connecticut. I’ve only been able to visit them once since even before the pandemic, and for Jodi it’s been a lot longer. https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/1c184559971acbfaafaddfe19f06b7b5f3e30216ead285b2ffa6d2d2846aeed7/view -
