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.

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…

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 🙂
