I have had a serious of "near zero days" (reference hiking jargon), but I think they mostly just seem like zero days. I am getting stuff done, just not at 100% efficiency. Not sure anyone can move with 100% efficiency... Anyhow, I am planning on starting my next journey on May 1st. -- more details as they unfold. I know what I like and dislike. I know what turns me on and off. It's time for that knowledge to be guidance. We booked a trip to Wyoming/Yellowstone park in a few weeks. It will tackle at least three items that have been on my list 1.) Visit Yellowstone (in winter). 2.) A longish snowmobile trip. 3.) A visit to Wyoming. That will be my 50th state. That will make it all US states, 100 countries and all continents. I will likly be getting involved with MTP (Most Traveled People) https://mtp.travel/ where they break countries into regions. I decided I like this music. DiDuLa - "On the way home"

Psychologist helps victims of data loss / Some soothing words after the data wreck The above article (probably a 404 by the time you read it) is about a crisis counselor for victims of "data loss". Fun Stuff. I am working on a paper for a competition at school on the topic of "information ethics" I have two weeks to finish that. The paper is thought provoking if nothing else. Bonnie went to vistit our llamas yesterday. I have secured the domain name "www.llamafootnotes.com". There is nothing there yet. The photo is one of our llamas. She is currently named Fawn. I had to retouch the photo cause it was so light. Look at the eyelashes. She is very pretty in person. I am getting hay this weekend.

Burningbird: Google Blogger = What? here are more photos from Douglas's and my trip to Quebec. Douglas is a real colonial. He very carefully pronounces his english words when asking for something in a store. This movie was an attempt to show the steam from the cars. It was cold. Cold Steam from cars...some cars looked like they were burning up.

Snowsports canada.com Douglas and I are planning on heading up to Valcourt Quebec this sunday for the Snow Machine races. The high temp in Potsdam is calling for 0 degrees F. A low of -18 degrees F is expected. I suspect it may get colder in Canada, Eh? We will have to decide if it is worth it.

Binghamton, New York Regional Radar Loop by Intellicast It's Snowing!!! Loard knows we need it. I told the guy in Mass to forget about the deal on his HOLDER tractor. I found a better deal in Ohio I think. It is a lot less money for a better machine. Let's see how it goes. Wish me luck.

BargainBuilder.com The Online Marketplace for Excess Building Materials I haven't blogged in a while, too busy I guess. Today I have to go to Rochester to perhaps pick out a few llamas. Tonight we have to back to binghamton for a TM dinner. I am unsured if I RSVP'd so I will have to try and get a hold of the host to find out if we are going. I installed Visio on my computer. Now I can work on the drawings of the house. I am getting tired of the cold.

Seven Stars ... a poem by Allison Chambers Coxsey These people gave their lives for their work as most of us do. Whether it be by stroke, stress, or violent end, we humans live to work and toil to totality for the betterment of humanity. I can't help but think about the nameless individuals that I have know that have died for their work. I have known many.

SILO I got the bobcat running again. It appears the starter motor may have broke because of severely retarded ignition timing. The distributor was very loose and probably walked to the point of "reverse start" causing the starter to jam and break at the tip. Anyway, it is OK and the weld job only cost a box of donuts. I am negotiating with a guy in Mass. to buy the following machine and attachments. Don't see many two-seat tractors do ya? The HOLDER is goofy but after thinking about it it really makes sense for our farm.
