Thursday: genealogy conference, Mulan
Sep. 10th, 2020 11:16 pmA. watched the live action Mulan today. She enjoyed it a lot. She had seen the animated one, but was not any kind of massive fan. We discussed it ahead of time, and she had a pretty good understanding that this was going to be quite different from the animated, and she was very open to that. I only watched parts of it, because I was also attending NYSFHC (New York State Family History Conference, all virtual this year and thus I can attend) livestreamed presentations. I really liked what I saw.
NYSFHC has so far been really good. I skipped the Mayflower DNA presentation and the evening social, but I watched I think all the rest of the livestreamed sessions (not the entire pre-open, but a lot of it). Turns out to be _very_ compatible with doing the Lego Disney Train and station kit, which is hugely fun to put together. The Jane Wilcox presentation diving into what is in the New York State Archive was really enjoyable, and so was the Skip Duett presentation on the military tract (cut short by some kind of technical difficulties). Smoothly presented and highly detailed, the kind of thing ya gotta be pretty nerdy to love, but I sure love it.
Looking forward to two more days of livestream, and then lots of on demand; glad I paid for the Complete.
ETA: I walked with M., and then it poured on and off. A. and R. went out on the tandem and came back abruptly, soaking wet.
Today, we learned that A.’s school provided device has mismatched charger (USB-C) and chargee (and HP chromebook with ... not USB-C).
