Note… Check-lists are There for a Reason

Cool night, dipping down to about 3C, then a nice clear morning climbing to the mid-teens. After breakfast I started on disassembling all the electronics and satellite stuff. I couldn’t possibly do that last night as someone wanted Grey’s Antimony … Continue reading →

Six-for-Six

Posted on February 24, 2014 by Barry

Another warm night, although quite overcast when we got up. After breakfast Lyn did some quilting while I hit e-bay looking for a replacement for our super-duper-does-everything remote for the entertainment systems. It has been getting a little finicky lately, … Continue reading →
