LaTeX Assignment Template

Posted on April 9, 2019July 19, 2021 by Joe Del Rocco

Added a LaTeX template for homework assignments on Overleaf. Please feel free to use it. I’m biased, but I think it’s neat and organized (and my TA liked it). It’s even Star Trek themed! Here is an example PDF.

Palm Beach Zoo

Posted on April 7, 2019July 19, 2021 by Joe Del Rocco

We visited the Palm Beach Zoo on the way back from our stay at the Waldorf Astoria in Boca Raton. It’s a beautiful little zoo/conservatory located in a public park near West Palm Beach. There was no wait when we showed up (mid-morning). It has 4 main walkable areas, some larger than others. They have…

Waldorf Astoria Boca Raton

Posted on April 7, 2019July 19, 2021 by Joe Del Rocco

We took advantage of our Hilton discount to visit the Waldorf Astoria resorts in Boca Raton, FL this weekend. They have 2 resorts, the Boca Raton Resort and Club (inland), and Boca Beach Club (on the beach). They are both very beautiful.

Silver Springs State Park

Posted on March 17, 2019July 19, 2021 by Joe Del Rocco

Shared a cabin with my buddy Shane at Silver Springs State Park, “gateway to Ocala National Forest.” Their cabins are sometimes hard to come by, and he found a last minute opening. It was one of the last good weather weekends of the year (for us in Florida). We didn’t do the typical glass-bottom boat…

Saw Tom Hook with Eddie Metz and Bobby Durham – also known as The Terrier Brothers – along with trombonist Pat Gullota at the Blue Bamboo tonight. They were all fantastic and very friendly. They have decades of experience and have played all over the world. As a trio they mostly play New Orleans style…

Volunteer Fence Building

Posted on January 3, 2019July 19, 2021 by Joe Del Rocco

Today I helped The Parke House Academy build a new fence for their little ones (lower division). A few of the 4×4 posts were reclaimed from my fence that I was replacing. After building, I sanded the low gateway fence to help avoid any unnecessary splinters 🙂

Reclaimed Wood Pendant Light

Posted on December 23, 2018June 13, 2022 by Joe Del Rocco

I decided to do something useful with our dilapidated old fence that needed to be replaced ***. A simple looking, rustic ceiling light/chandelier at First Watch caught my eye. It was larger than I needed, but I used the general style. Initially I saved some of the rest of the wood to be used as…
