Looks like a great time. Sorry about brake issues, but you got home safely.

Happy Easter to the sty.

Thanks, yes 2 100w solar panels. My wife ordered solar panels, batteries, and an inverter/charger back in 18. They showed up while she was in ICU recovering from stroke. Not sure what she was planning for them, but getting repurposed to the van now.

Enjoying the nice days here. Had my sons and a friend help me mount roof rack on van. Put it up without the wood and it still took a bit. This was made strictly from measuring everything several times. There was no chance to check fit before hoisting it up. I let out a whoop when it sat into the...

Happy Birthday a day late. Looks and sounds like a great way to celebrate another year. The photo of the pig nose with mountains in back is a calendar shot!

Nice when little things make such a difference. Great pig you have there!

Things are turning around. No more seizures or anti seizure meds since ambulance ride in. Shunt resistance turned up as it was draining too much CSF too fast. Caused a small subdural hematoma, but improving. EEG to measure brain waves still on until 4 am. Looking like step down unit tomorrow and...

Thanks for the kind words guys. Surgery went great and we came home today. Unfortunately the euphoria we were feeling changed in a heartbeat. Back in the ICU with seizures less than 6 hours after leaving. Couldn’t try sleeping in with her again tonight. Rest in a hospital is an unknown. Home to...
