Welcome to Dad’s chicken scratches!

Come join me as I spend time on my hobbies. I dabble in routine maintenance, home lab administration, home automation, woodworking, and RV’ing

Dad’s hobbies

With an academic electrical engineering background, Dad’s hobbies tend to gravitate toward electronics, programming, and control systems. His career as a cybersecurity infrastructure specialist has further concreted this to his life.

The Family

Pronouned as the Wolf Pack on this wordpress, the Family consist of all the living things in the house. The goal is so we can look back and reminisce the past joys and struggles.

Homelab (sys admin)

This wordpress would not exist without this hobby and many other services Dad hosts from his home.

Home Ownership

One of the original reasons to record and document projects. Saint Tessy has been with Wolf Pack soon after Dad and Mom got married. Owning a home has many perks but the maintenance and remodeling is its drawback, if you chose to see it that way.

Making Stuff

Dad couldn’t come up with a specific name for this hobby. Things that he makes via his woodworking tools or prints out from his 3dPrinter.

Marksmanship

Things that go pew or twang, their accessories, and any supportive activities that go with them.

RV’ing

The Wolf Pack’s form of vacation. Mom remembers the camping trips she did as a kid and the Family will continue to distill that into the kids as a way to get away from the daily life and spend vacation together as a family.

As Dad says, can’t call it a hobby if you can’t watch a $100 burn away

“My thoughts, scratch pad, public outreach. ymmv”
