the space beside the TRW building at the Foothills Campus. I got to walk around the long way, because the Health Sciences building was closed due to a water main break.

we installed a new subfloor in a kitchen this afternoon, before hanging a set of new cupboards. it’s going to look fantastic when it’s all done. then, I went home to my old, cheap kitchen…

the ICT building, en route to some caffeine at the Good Earth Cafe.
no dumping
The storm sewer grates in our neighbourhood have been painted with reminders not to pour stuff down the drains. Hopefully, everyone will remember to run a block downhill to check if they’re allowed to dump toxic chemicals in front of their house.

an old micro ampmeter I rescued from the garbage. I’m not sure why – there’s something awesome about the wooden box, the clasp, the old knobs and dials. It’s apparently from 1966, and has been well used, but looks like it would work if given a little love.
