Time to Rest… Blast from the Past

February 23, 2017 Written by dwsmith

All Good Intentions…

I spent all day in meetings, then working at my computer at work doing workshop stuff, then home at this computer and then reading.

I rested my eye regularly, but still too tired in the eye to write much tonight or read much more.

So the planned blog is replaced by this placeholder so I can keep my streak alive.

Maybe tomorrow.

In the meantime, how about a blast from the past on this Thursday?

In this picture from the 1960 World Science Fiction Convention taken by Jay Kay Klein, Ron Ellik, Randall Garrett, Mark Irwin, Isaac Asimov, L. Sprague de Camp, Dirce Archer, and James Blish watch BJo Trimble work on a sign for the art show. Yeah, no talent in this picture…

And yes, the same BJo Trimble who helped save Star Trek for a third season and also got the first space shuttle named Enterprise.
