Since we can't update the "About me" field, I thought I'd put some information here.
I'm a retired electrical engineer, having spent the majority of my career in communications. I hold 32 US patents, mostly on communications subjects.
Although it was not the focus of my career work, I have a decent knowledge of power distribution, both in the US and internationally, especially for residential service. I also have some knowledge of three-phase and single-phase electric motors and their control systems, but mostly only smaller motors maybe up to 10HP.
After I retired, I took classes in woodworking and developed some level of skill. I've taught woodworking classes, short courses, in veneering, carving, dovetails, and box-making. I’ve built a lot of furniture for our home, to the point where my wife told me she doesn’t have room for any more in our house😊
My wife, Judy, and I travel a couple of times a year and I document our trips on our blog, www.mikeandjudytravel.com

Re: Is the Essence of Japan tour worth the money?
Exactly right, Smiling Sam. We went from Istanbul to Dubai not too long ago. Hard to do that with a land tour. (View Post)1 -
Re: Is the Essence of Japan tour worth the money?
If you want to see my take on the cruise, I blogged it, which you can see at https://www.mikeandjudytravel.com/2022-3Istanbul-Dubai-01.htm We bought a couple of Turkish rugs during that cruise. (View Post)2 -
Re: Is the Essence of Japan tour worth the money?
I think that's true for many (most) places. However, if you're going to a lot of places in a short time, a cruse is more convenient. (View Post)3
