Weekly Photo Challenge: Transient

Sounds of a transient event
I learned something new with this Photo Challenge. The word transient had sad connotations to me so I thought I would learn more about the word and its meanings. I was surprised when I read that there is a “thing” called a transient event in electrical engineering. My husband and son are electrical engineers so this seemed like an interesting thing to try and understand a bit more! This is what I learned:
1.Another word for transient is oscillation.
2. A transient event is a short-lived burst of energy in a system caused by a sudden change of state.
3. The strings of a string instrument is characterized by transients.
4. It is fun to listen to my husband play his guitar in the morning so I could take his picture and post this today!
Lesson over!

Sometimes a bench is more than a bench because of who is using it! This one was spotted while I was visiting Hemingway Home in Key West where cats are king!

Weekly Photo Challenge: Dense
The first thing that came to mind when I looked at this week’s photo challenge on the daily post- Dense– was chocolate. I associated the word dense with a recipe I saved years ago. Now I had a great reason to actually make it! The cake was baked in ramekins so the math formula seemed appropriate! Dense, moist and, yes, perfect as headlined on the recipe!
