A wild @Recta_Pete appears (well, his display does) and is greatly appreciated by LGR.

Noticing a couple of items I sold via #VCFEast consignment on eBay for way more that I sold them.

I don't mind, it's just amusing.

Okay, if I can't sell my CGA monitor at a reasonable price I might try to make this adapter (was trying to sell my monitor/video-7 card/JCM-1 RGB adapter at #VCFEast consignment, but only the adapter sold). Moving soonish, so I'm slowly parting with things I would otherwise keep.

Side by side view of my two Epson LX-80 dot matrix printers. The one on the right I got free at #VCFEast really needs a good cleaning before I'll start testing it.

I was happy to see @polpo again at #VCFEast2025. He had a Polaroid 100 land camera loaded with pack film. He shot this picture of me at my #PenPlotter exhibit. I fell so lucky that he used a shot on me— I’ll never forget. Thank you!

Back from a whirlwind of a weekend. Thank you to all that stopped by my #PenPlotter exhibit table at #VCFEast this year. Was great to meet so many folks in person. And a huge thank you to all that purchased plots and floppies at consignment.

I gave away lots of postcards this year. If you got a plot or postcard, reply with a picture!
