Maybe I'm going to try writing again

Not sure I'll follow through on this thought, but I think I want to try writing stuff down again.  So I've done a take your kids to work day thing for the past 3 years and they've gone over reasonably well.  I need to write those up.  I think more interesting, at least to me, is planning for 2019.  Since I do this in small bursts and then a few hurried days right before the event I need to start early.

So last year's Adafruit based Circuit Playground Express went well.  If I make good on my plan to write, eventually this will be a link to the 2018 event. My initial thought for 2019 was to do some kind of IoT event.  Wasn't quite sure what shape that would take, but I'm sure I could come up with something.  Then Adabox 008 arrived and now I'm torn.  It came with a Circuit Playground Express and their new CRICKIT platform.  It also came with a truck load of stuff to help you make your own cardboard robots.  I started playing with mine tonight and now I'm torn.  It was super easy to set up, and make something move.  I spent more time cleaning off space of my messy desk to work with than actually making this work, it was that easy.

So now I have a choice to make.  IoT or AdaFruit Crickit and their #MakeRobotFriend platform.
