I'm taking my sanity into my own hands at the moment, I picked up a 250Gb. drive for my laptop and at the moment I am cloning it! I HOPE the new drive will start right up!! REALLY! or I'll have to switch back to the old one.
The connection style my laptop uses is scsi and it needs a file downloaded before the drive is recognized, I'm hoping that file is cloned also, I'd hate to get it all done and find out that the new drive does NOT work! GAK!! LOL!
Going from 160Gb. to 250Gb. will be NICE! MUCH more storage to fill!
Time ot head off for now!
Later all!

Monday
It is once again Monday, my hours for the week have changed, nothing big but it gives me a little more sleep in the morning which is a good thing.
I will be at the lake one more time to clean, the trailer needs a whole lot of work before I can put it up for it's winter rest, too many to list at the moment. Time to clean!
So what will my winter project be? I have NO idea!!! but I need to find something to do that will keep my mind busy! a laptop or two? a new desktop? remodel the inside of my home? who knows? but it must be SOMETHING!
Later for now!!

Still kicking~!
Yeha, I'm still kicking, just trying to enjoy the last few moments of summer. This was the last camping weekend (Going to try and sneak another in yet!) and I am NOT ready to put up my trailer or stop playing at the lake! it was a very nice summer indeed, there were many fun weekends that I can think of, but not enough by any mean's.
I have a couple of small projects to get done on the Bravada yet, an idler arm and I think I might have a work universal joint in the front end, I'm noticing a vibration in the front end that is not the tires, guess I'll need to take a look.
I may put the Stratus up for sale, it just set's for most of the time now that the Bravada is road worthy and I don't want it to just set.
I should head off for now, I'll post more later!

"Get my GOOD profile" said the frog!
That's what I think he said anyhow? this fellow was only an inch long, but I managed to get a nice shot of him anyhow. It seems there is an abundance of wildlife at the lake this season, each week there is some new critter making its way through the campgrounds, I don't mind though.
I didn't get much accomplished today, I woke with a migraine that fortunately did not last long after I took the med's for it. I did manage to make up some cornbread for dinner though, I'd been craving it for day's! it was worth the wait!
Time for me to head off!
Later all!

Two more weekends!
As sad as it is I must report that there are only two more weekends to camp, fall is here, the leaves are now slowly starting to turn their earthy colors, the sun is rising and setting later and the evenings here are slowly getting cooler, yes, fall is here.
I knew fall was close and so do the animals, the Canadian geese arrived three weekends ago, about one hundred of them total. I decided to get a picture of the geese and instead scared them ALL of with the snap of a twig, I'll have to watch out for those twigs next time I see the geese here.
I have two favorite time of year, spring and fall. I enjoy the warm days and cool night's of both seasons, I sleep better, I do not however feel better, my allergies tear me up terribly until the first late fall freeze hits us.
I woke today at 6am near freezing, I had forgot to turn on the furnace in my trailer, when I did turn it on I discovered that BOTH of my propane tanks were empty, I was lucky though, I keep a 20Lb. tank at the lake to refill the 1Lb. bottles my grill uses, so I hooked that tank up and turned on the heat! I feel MUCH better now thank you!
I will find out tomorrow about an opportunity, it will be a last minute deal that could be interesting? nothing permanent, just something temporary. I guess I'll have to wait and see?
I should head off for now, I need to get myself another cup of coffee and find my sinus pills.
Later all!

SUNSHINE!!!!
Check this beast out! cool eh?YUP! there was sunshine here in town today! how nice is that? Three full day's without a minute of sunshine! GAK! no more of that please!
The last three day's have flown right on by lots of little things to get done at work right now even though things are slow.
I hope to get to the lake this weekend and camp! I haven't been up in two weeks now and I want to PLAY BAD!! REALLY bad! LOL!
I should head off for now, even I can see that I am getting boring here!
Later all!

Rain, pictures and the E-coat conference
I had plans to work on a motor home today, but the rain here has taken care of that! I just can't work in the mud! NASTY!
The E-coat conference I attended this week was quite interesting as I posted a couple of days ago, I'd like to find more information on what I learned there. The scientific end of E-coating is VERY interesting! The chemical reactions, how PH affects the pretreatment and coating process, the two types of phosphate crystals available (Phosphophyllite and hopeite) even the terms used are interesting.
I have a list of terms that I am going to find definitions for:
Electrodeposition
Electroendomosis
Electrophoresis
Pseudomonus
Electrolysis
Emulsification
Eductors
Immulsability..............
And that is only the beginning! Could this be a new direction to go? NO idea! but it is interesting!
Right now the economy is tough so my company isn't paying for any classes, as soon as they do I will be taking them, I'm getting hyper again! LOL!
HA! you would laugh if you could see how bad spell check flipped out on the scientific terms! LOL!
My aunt called me last night and asked for my pictures from the family reunion, I of course said I'd drop them off and I also offered her both of my sisters pictures also. I went down and dropped them off and picked up the pictures that one of my cousins had taken, I look at it this way, if I missed a picture someone else had to have taken it! there were six cameras taking pictures there! I still need to get the pictures from one of my aunts and a cousin then get them out to everyone.
Later all!
