I took a long (really long) weekend and went up to visit my parents at Deep Springs, where my father is teaching at the small college for the winter semester.

Basically, we hiked around in the surrounding mountains for 5 days, and it was beautiful.

Here are the photos.

I decided that just buying limoncello from the store was too easy -- I needed to make my own. Plus, where're you going to buy Basil-cello?

The procedure is simple enough: steep lemon zest in pure grain alcohol for a while, then dilute with a simple sugar syrup until it's the right strength.

But when is enough really ever enough? Never!

So here are the tales of six Experimentocelli.

A wiki is a user-editable collection of brief webpages. It makes webpagery so simple that even my mom can do it. If you're a friend of mine then feel free to mess around.

A brief tutorial on how to use it should get you started. Or just head over to the sandbox, click on "edit", and start messing around. You can even upload images then link to them from your page.

The coolest feature of myWiki is that it's got a clickable imagemap of the whole site which is automatically generated. I think it's cool, anyway.
