The Salty Siren tavern is not open on a Sunday morning. Imagine that.

Hi, I'm Mark

My real name is Mark McFate. Summitt Dweller was originally my Geocaching.com player name, and it still is, but I've applied it to a number of other pursuits over the years. So, welcome to my personal blog. FYI: I also have a "professional" blog at https://static.grinnell.edu/dlad-blog for all things related to my "real" work at Grinnell College, where I've been the 'Digital Library Applications Developer' since September 2012.
