Good lord. I'm glad I wasn't around while yall were sick. Might have caught something.

As in couch surfing in people's door yards? Yeah, we'll, we're not above that.

Finally found a buyer for the Time Capsule that I built last Fall. My old town commissioned it for their sesquicentennial, then wouldn't pay the $90 I asked for to cover out of pocket expenses because I insisted on it being an anonymous donation and they wouldn't cut a check or take out petty cash without my name. Tards. [/image]
I ditched it on etsy for $650, about 1/5 what I would normally charge, but we really didn't want to put it in storage with the rest of our belongings and ship it out to CO.
The buyer wants me to replace the key and glass on the upper box with a shell inlay of sand shaded maple and mahogany. Guess I'll try to work on that today. Only charging him an extra $75 for that, and although the whole inlay is only about 2 1/2" long x 1 1/2" high, it's a lot of detailed work. Seriously cramping my attitude of slackitude.

I got you both beat. Sunrise in Edinburgh at a quarter to nine in late december...sunset at twenty to four (wrong side deena)
of course, in june we go from 430am to 10pm, which basically means we get about 21 hours of working daylight.

This morning it has been downgraded to 1.5" today and 2.5" tomorrow. Doesn't feel like it to me; I'm betting we get less than that.
Edge: 1 Meteorologists: 0
No snow yesterday. They're still calling for 2.8" today, but we'll see.
Supposed to hit the gym tonight, it'll be my first time climbing real or fake rock since mid-Dec. The Achilles is still sore to the touch, if I squeeze it or poke it with a razor blade, so I just won't do that.
It seems to be at near full strength, I just know from the last two weekends climbing ice that I can't bounce on it without being prepared for the strain. If I know a strain is coming I am fine, it's the unexpected hyper extention that sets it throbbing.

you should put a notice in the town's paper of your recent success. kind of like how people put notices of when their kids graduate from college or get married. not sure how you'd word it, but still, that'd be pretty funny to cut it out of the paper and put as a hidden time piece inside the time capsule, only for someone to discover it 50 years from now just so that the town manager's kid can be embarrassed when he's the asst clerk.

[image][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v293/loransmith/furniture/DSCN7089.jpg[/IMG][/image] I ditched it on etsy for $650, about 1/5 what I would normally charge, but we really didn't want to put it in storage with the rest of our belongings and ship it out to CO. The buyer wants me to replace the key and glass on the upper box with a shell inlay of sand shaded maple and mahogany. Guess I'll try to work on that today. Only charging him an extra $75 for that, and although the whole inlay is only about 2 1/2" long x 1 1/2" high, it's a lot of detailed work. Seriously cramping my attitude of slackitude. you should put a notice in the town's paper of your recent success. kind of like how people put notices of when their kids graduate from college or get married. not sure how you'd word it, but still, that'd be pretty funny to cut it out of the paper and put as a hidden time piece inside the time capsule, only for someone to discover it 50 years from now just so that the town manager's kid can be embarrassed when he's the asst clerk. The town's folk and the Powers That Be were on opposite ends of the excitement scale when we left in October. I did not leave with many sympathizers in the town Establishment. World famous in New Durham! Woo! A name that will live in infamy! Rage against the Machine!
what a bunch of tools.

We have a few must-stop destinations, well, maybe 20, and otherwise we have no agenda.

What are you offering? couch, coffee some local climbing and you could talk wood working with the husband Sounds intriguing. Do you have parking for a 24' trailer? sure Well then we will entertain the idea of a side trip through Washington. What part of the state are you in?
south west tri cities. close to the oregon border

actually, it's a lovely city with lots going on. the weather sucks and you are on the prairies, but other than that, it was a great place.
