Lovely 3-day weekend hiking in the Rosenlaui valley in the Bernese Oberland. Can’t wait to go back!

3D Printing
Moving the 3D printer into my office seemed like a good idea until I realized that my son would be running it all day long. Thank goodness for noise-canceling headphones!
Stand up paddle
It’s been too hot to hike recently, but a couple weeks ago we bought a stand up paddle board, so when it’s hot we can do this instead. My favorite thing now is paddling through lily pads.
Happy 4th!
Grilling corn and drinking beer on this 4th of July (in Switzerland).
6900: Cyber Saucer
6900-1: Cyber Saucer, 1997. Flying saucer piloted by a single blue alien. The saucer spins and can separate from the landing gear. Check out those bright colors and big printed parts!
6836: V-Wing Fighter
6836-1: V-Wing Fighter, 1997. Small spaceship with ample firepower and thrusters piloted by a red droid. Not a bad looking ship.
6829: Radon Rover
6829-1: Radon Rover, 1997. Odd-looking ground vehicle driven by a blue droid. I’m not sure what’s going on with those wings over the rear wheels.
Pilatus hike
Today I hiked up Pilatus, probably the toughest hike I’ve ever done. I’ve been training for this for 9 months: 9.3 km, 1,620m ascent, 5h, 24°C. At least the weather was clear this week, so the views were good.
6818: Cyborg Scout
6818-1: Cyborg Scout, 1997. Space tricycle piloted by a blue droid. Not great but points for being slightly asymmetrical.
Spicy tuna tartare
Work from home lunch: spicy tuna tartare on a bed of arugula plus tuna sashimi.
