This space hasn't seen an update for a while, so I thought I'd post an assortment of things that have been happening.
- This year's Great Circle Tour (for the 2007 version, see Half-Way Point, Arrived in South Dakota, and Return to Indiana), we went through Iowa, saw the Freiwalds in Windom, MN, stayed four days in Watertown, SD (including a side trip to visit the Westerburs in Brookings and the Stormos on their farm), continued to The Cities to see high-school friends in the area, enjoyed family at my Aunt's wedding (see Estee's Wedding), stayed with Jenny's friends in Sheboygan, WI (and met the house rabbit), and returned. The Van added 2060 miles and it is now officially ready for new tires (it has to earn them, you know...).
- For my birthday, I got (myself) a Logitech Duet wireless music player. It plays music in our kitchen and has a handy remote that lets you browse different things. It clued me into Slacker Radio. Other 'presents' were driving across the states of MN and WI and seeing my Colts beaten up by Green Bay (while I was in Wisconsin, no less). It made lunch at A&W fun (a 60-year-old passer by to our table said to my Jeff Saturday jersey, "Go Pack.").
- I've become a fan of Slacker Radio, especially their Christian Rock station.
- For organizing photos, I've upgraded to Picasa 3 (in beta) and it crashes more than it should, but it's a great program.
- I'm working on building a new computer (from on-hand components--they weren't doing me any good just sitting there) for the kitchen.
