The family staid reasonably health (just a case of the flu which every one of us caught).</p> <p>Work slowed down a bit after only three trips, and the last one was in June, but I did get to spend two weeks in London which was cool. While the work has been not what I really want to be doing, it has been interesting, and next year promises to be very interesting. I have no clue if travel is in the cards or not, but I will keep the camera handy.</p> <p>In the coming year, I plan to focus on health, photography, and technology. I want to get back to taking photos every day, and to bring the quality back up to art level over the snapshots and historical documentation that I have been doing.</p> <p>Also, I want to revisit the 30 Day FreeBSD challenge again in January. I have the old HP R810 running <a class="reference external" href="http://www.pcbsd.org">PCBSD 10.1</a> already set up that I have been using for a couple of days working the kinks out of it, so I think I can do it this time. Normal caveat applies...I have a work laptop which dual boots Windows 8.1 and Fedora 21 for my work stuff. The home stuff should work nicely on the laptop.</p> <p>Just to prove things, this post was written under FreeBSD.</p> <p>I also need to fix up my virtual host farm. I have one too many, and do not need it, but of course, it is the one with the main mail and other services, so I need to hurry up and migrate things off of it.</p> <p>I hope your 2015 is a great year.</p></div>30DayChallengepersonealphotosahttp://www.duckland.org/posts/goodbye-2014.htmlWed, 31 Dec 2014 05:44:55 GMT
