		<description><![CDATA[Well, it&#8217;s been just over a year since I had the solar panels turned on, and I&#8217;ve learned one important lesson:

Either Bella Energy did a perfect job of estimating my energy usage for the entire year, and sold me the exact right number of solar panels needed to generate that exact amount of energy I&#8217;d [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The website for the Front Range Photographic Society (FRPS) has moved to a Facebook group located here.
We were not really &#8220;active&#8221; and the only thing that was really getting used was the mailing list, so I decided to stop paying for it, and move it to Facebook.
I still have access to all photos, files and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The latest update in the &#8220;Greening&#8221; effort was to replace my old X10 Thermostat (TXB-16) with a new Venstar T1800 7 day programmable thermostat, and then hook up an INSTEON adapter to it that will let a product called Indigo on my home control computer run it.
By itself, the new thermostat is considerably more powerful [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I happened to be working in Santa Barbara during the last week, and caught a couple nights of stunning sunsets. I didn&#8217;t go out the first night with the camera, we just sat on Patty and Jeff&#8217;s deck and watched it. But tonight, I couldn&#8217;t &#8220;not go&#8221;. I drove down to Shoreline Park (on the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Gregg and I tried an experiment &#8220;painting&#8221; the Steamboat Barn with light tonight. It was 15 degrees out there, about a half hour after sundown. Gregg brought a halogen spotlight and &#8220;painted&#8221; the barn while we shot exposures about 30 seconds in length. Gregg&#8217;s shots on his D90 turned out WAY better than mine, for [...]]]></description>

Basically this is a meter that let&#8217;s me keep an eye on energy usage with both the feed from Xcelenergy (the power company here) and my solar panels. It&#8217;s something only a guy could [...]]]></description>

They warned us again on Tuesday, but it was cloudy and windy, with lots of fall leaves in the air, so [...]]]></description>

We wrapped it up at 1:30am this year instead of 3am, and it only took an hour to clean up the streets the next morning. And, just to be clear, I have [...]]]></description>
