One of the closet bins was tipped out and the contents thinned; I generally keep all adapters and cables for computer drives, a few USB cables for various devices, but about 1/3 of the contents were duplicate cables and are now in the library bin along with other discarded electronic devices. Several more bins to go; I'll be in town again next week so will make it a goal to take the rest of the e-waste on that trip.

This morning I dug most of the rest* of the sweet potatoes, I'm guessing at least 40 pounds, making a total of 50 pounds harvested this year. Several of these were the size and shape of an American football.

The library reception this afternoon was nice, a lot of friends—colleagues and professors (who are now friends) present. The acoustics in the room are terrible; it had me thinking I need hearing aids, but when I asked a couple of other folks if it was me or the room, they admitted they couldn't make out much of it. Good thing there is an associated website and I can poke around at leisure.



*I tried to get all of the rest, but the grass is tall enough in the beds and the vines spread around that it is likely I missed a few small ones.
