Otherwise, full mud season; misty mornings, unsettled day, rainy night. It is Town Meeting today, and there was a changing of the guard as the 30-year veteran selectboard chair retired. Between him and the prior chair, their service begain just as World War II ended. Politics in my town seem rather subdued in comparison to elsewhere; certainly less than the federal level and even compared to the more placid state environment. damn good potluck afterwards; venison chili and brown/black bread were the standouts. Hitting a brick wall in my home server setup. It's been hard to find a single location to go through all the steps from unlocking your home router to DNS...stuff, to setting up a gopher/gemini file structure, to find the right version of server software to set up, to setting the config files. Zine is up! Questions as to how to hang/present it; we landed on a clothesline-type approach. Let's see how well it handles a windy day.
