weeknotes teaching technology family museum

This Week:

Weird tech week at Hartwick, where most of our network and computer infrastructure went down. We’ve muddled along as best as we could, but I would really like this to be resolved soon.
In FLP102, we talked about Barbie collecting, drawing on the brilliant work of Marlys Pearson and Paul Mullins, and also about Antiques Roadshow and the popularization of antique collecting.
Despite the technical glitches, we held our annual “Horror in the Museum” Halloween storytelling event. We had a great turnout and a lot of wonderful readers. Thanks all!
Halloween was a lot of fun. Alanna and I took Hazel out to the west end of Oneonta for some trick or treating, while Dominic went out with friends. We don’t get a lot of trick or treaters on our street, but the weather was nice, so we sat on our stoop and enjoyed the evening together.
Now that the exhibit opening and “horror” are done, I got back to planning for an upcoming tribal visit.
