Was planning to grab a breakfast sandwich on my way to the makerspace when it occurred to me one of my locals does a Full Irish breakfast. Now I'm sitting at he bar with a perfectly poured pint awaiting breakfast. Maybe I'll stay for the live music at noon.
Hope you all are having as pleasant a Sunday.
Stay strong folks. Celebrate your wins and keep looking out for each other. We'll get there.
@KR4BTP a group from the local amateur radio club has a space at a local makerspace. They've partnered with the electronics shop there to setup a station and support classes.
