READIN started out as a place for me to keep track of what I am reading, and to learn (slowly, slowly) how to design a web site.

There has been some mission drift here and there, but in general that's still what it is. Some of the main things I write about here are reading books, listening to (and playing) music, and watching the movies. Also I write about the work I do with my hands and with my head; and of course about bringing up Sylvia.

The site is a bit of a work in progress. New features will come on-line now and then; and you will occasionally get error messages in place of the blog, for the forseeable future. Cut me some slack, I'm just doing it for fun! And if you see an error message you think I should know about, please drop me a line. READIN source code is PHP and CSS, and available on request, in case you want to see how it works.

See my reading list for what I'm interested in this year.

READIN has been visited approximately 236,737 times since October, 2007.

🦋 Vacation photos

Herewith, a selection of snapshots from our stay in Tuscany:

Sylvia samples the local product.
A statue in the Boboli Gardens grabbed my attention. Here is a long view.
A bridge over the Arno, and Sylvia sitting in front of it.
Ellen got two very nice shots of Florence while she was in the Bargello museum: a bell tower, and the Palazzo Vecchio.
In the piazza in Lucca, we saw a house of cards.
Nearly every day, we visited the playground in Impruneta.
In the place we were staying, Sylvia's favorite activities were watching the chickens and the horses. And mugging for the camera; and writing home to her friends.

I tried my hand at using some of the advanced features on Ellen's camera. The results were mixed but I got a couple of nice evening landscape photos from our terrace:
