  • Weekend review: weeding, canning and podcasting

    This was a nice weekend to be outdoors, so I spent a lot of it getting the fence lines cleaned up in eventual preparation for a repainting.  Still have to figure out a way to clear a line through the woods.  A bushog attached to a bobcat is the leading contender. I also spent some…

  • Test of new portable recorder

    .!. It’s raining toys in my office the last few weeks. I got my Creative DiviCam 428 in on Monday and when I got back in the office today, my Edirol R-09 audio recorder had arrived. I really like the size of it, the fact it takes SD cards and has replaceable batteries. It doesn’t…
