Well not really but I thought I would add something to the page. Mostly to show it’s not dead. I’m working on updating my repeater list as well as a page for links to things that intrigue me. I know the links thing is kind of oldschool but I always enjoy them when i visit other poeple’s blogs.

Got to love the iPhone. Not sure how I lived without it. The nicest thing is I can post to this blog from my phone without an app. Ohh the simple things in life.

Rough Night

Well storm’s blew threw the area last night. We have dodged most of them in the past. Unfortunately not this time. The strait line wind blew about 60 to 80 mph. Part of the shingles on my roof decided not to stay put and migrated to the front yard.

But I will say the lightning show was very spectacular to say the least.The best part is they are talking rain all week.The damage was wide spreed around the area and some people got it worse than me. I just hope the insurance company works quickly.

Round two is about to start and the sky is getting black again. A local ham radio spotter just reported 70 mph winds on the west side of the county. Gotta love this time of the year.

Well here ya go. Picture of the twins. My wife seems to have problems using the camera. So I’ll get some pictures taken myself and get them posted ASAP.

Also I found the reason I was having problems posting pictures with WordPress. Google Gears needs to be disabled. Or deleted as my case will be. If they cant make Gears compatible with the worlds best blogging app then I guess I don’t need their app. That means seeya!! Google Gears. I’m not sure why I even installed it to begin with.
