I did go out last night and spent an hour or so getting the driveway cleared off — it’s much easier and faster when you only have 2″ to 8″ of snow on the driveway instead of 2′ to 5′. Getting up this morning, I see there isn’t that much more new snow — only […]
Well, what a few days ago was looking like a day or two of “light snow” has turned into a prolonged storm (in two waves) that may end up leaving as much snow as the Christmas Blizzard did a week ago. As noted, we’re facing two storms; the first is expected to leave somewhere between […]
As soon as the sun was decently up, I resumed my effort to get our driveway clear from snow. This photo shows what I had done yesterday for the area in front of our garage and front door: After another hour or two of eating away at the large drift across the top of our […]
[FINAL UPDATE: 5:17 pm on 12/21/06]: Last few photos. [UPDATED 12:10 pm on 12/21/06]: Yet more photos. [UPDATED 9:00 am on 12/21/06]: I’ve added more photos. [UPDATED 7:34 am on 12/21/06]: I’ve added photos. Well, we were planning to be in San Diego for Christmas (we being myself, my wife Sandra and our daughter Emily). […]
First off, Wingnut’s official name is now “Howling Wingnut”. She howls — though it’s an eerie, high-pitched howl. She tilts her head back, points her snout to the sky, and honest-to-goodness howls. I’ll see if I can get a snapshot (or better yet, video) of it. Second, the girls now have nicknames: “Winnie” and “Marti”. […]
…we have two new Miniature Pinscher puppies: The light brown one standing by Sandra is named “Barking Moonbat”, while the black-and-tan one with the ball on Sandra’s back is “Flaming Howling Wingnut” (see here for explanation). They are sisters from the same litter, just as Laverne and Shirley were. That’s Laverne standing to the left; […]
While Webster attempts to tame a new swarm of micro Dobermans, I am set to travel to the land of my ancestors. As luck would have it, business is taking me to London for several days to pitch strange new forms of software to large scale financial institutions in hopes of keeping the venture solvent […]
(UPDATED 09/11/06) Check out Bruce Henderson’s post above for some high-resolution shots post-9/11. ..bruce.. In March 2001 — just six months before the 9/11 attacks — Sandra and I took our daughters Jacqui and Crystal, along with John Hicks (soon to become Jacqui’s fiance and then husband), up to New York City. We did the […]
[UPDATED BELOW as of Saturday, 9:41 pm – final update] (Friday morning, 10:30 am) Sandra and I have somewhere between 50 and 80 people coming over for a potluck BBQ late Saturday afternoon. And I’m in charge of the meat. After two weeks of intense work on a case with a short deadine, not to […]
…but posting will be light over the next few days as I will be on the road. ..bruce..
