My rule for #hotelview photos is that the camera should be pressed to the glass. Here is the best picture from the same window at the same time.

I am currently at an IARPA program review in DC and accidentally picked a hotel that is across the street from @optica.org ( #hotelview ). We had a nice social event on the balcony with flowers in 2019. I was surprised to find that I took a photo and captured the window of my current hotel room.

In 2019 Rob Thew (www.unige.ch/gap/qic/qtec...) and I hosted a Workshop on US-EU Collaboration in Quantum Information Science at the @optica.org building. Here is the workshop photo. I know @tahantech.bsky.social and @andreasateth.bsky.social are on bluesky. Everyone else tag yourself.

First suitcase got me through tenure and a sabbatical. The new third suitcase currently only has one sticker on it.

My friend who worked for CISCO said "The key to flying all the time is a hard-shell carry-on bag that fits in a CRJ-900 overhead bin." My second suit case that followed her advice reached its end.

I only took pictures in museums last time. This one is from the Renwick. Alicia Eggert, This Present Moment, 2019-2020

Another lyric from the song
"Well-rehearsed lines from our elated politicians
No longer offer solace, we can see the self-destruction"
and the singer's Wu Tang shirt reminds me of this political sign. (I've seen it in many states. This picture is in VA)
