Today’s mystery photo:
The Rochester house renovation is complete. New steel siding all around:
And complete up and down interior renovations:
We should close on selling it within a few weeks.
Zach used his profits from the work he put into the home renovation into buying a new van!
He also crashed his bicycle, ripping up his shoulder pretty bad.
This is the same van that Amazon is buying now for their delivery service. 4 wheel drive for those Montana Winters.
Nick’s company just launched a new adventure game, as well as getting some more funding: https://www.edsurge.com/news/2019-08-28-codecombat-dials-down-the-fighting-for-its-next-coding-game-and-raises-6-million .
That mystery photo was looking down the gullet of one of our pond fish
Some of our fish have been disappearing. We suspect raccoons and water snakes, like this guy:
He is non-poisonous, so I grabbed him and moved him up-creek 100 yards:
We rented an interesting house on the gulf. After getting stuck in the elevator for 15 minutes, we stuck with the stairs:
Beautiful view of St Vincent’s Island. Using my finger and guessing the height of a tree, I used geometry to calculate the distance to the island at 2000′, within 10% the 1800′ that google maps said:
We had fun with a kayak, other then when we flipped it in shallow water and broke something in Helen’s foot:
Aya and Eric joined us. They just got a kitten, so the used a kitten-cam to keep an eye on her:
I just switched this blog from medium.com to a WordPress blog. Let me know if you have any problems with it.
Closing with 2 minute pond tour video:

You amaze me with your Winter forest, and Bruce ponds. Life is Good.
Thanks Cherie! Life can indeed be good, is nice to get a reminder of that sometimes 🙂
I assume Zach is planning an RV conversion on the van? We have a 2 wheel drive sprinter here in California. My husband did the conversion … we love love it! Maybe we’ll see him on the road?
Yep, you guessed right! Being one armed for a few months will slow him down a bit, but he has big conversion plans. Good to hear it worked out well for you guys.
our friend Ken has a utube channel with many build videos … its either under Kenatube or Karavan … the second pair of arms in some of the vids is my husband 🙂
Life is good, indeed
I love. We can leave comments now!! Wow your old house looks fantastic!! Well done on the Reno’s! You garden is wonderful and your piano playing is lovely!! ❤️😘
