160m Loop at The Cottge

This may be a viable 160m loop option. The tree map may reveal
other options for the backyard alone.

Backyard Tree Map

Trees are numbered 1 through 22.  Tree number 15 is a great tree

but in the neighbor's yard approximately 60' out and 60' to the left--

off the map to the left.  Several of these tree are "prime".  A lot

of potential waiting for the right idea!  Thanks!

The voice of an Angel

Pie Jesu Domine,
dona eis requiem. (repeat 2x)Kind Lord Jesus,
grant them rest.



Pie Jesu Domine,
dona eis requiem sempiternam.
Kind Lord Jesus,
grant them everlasting rest.

And then there is lunch!

Yeah right!

Since as long as I can remember, I've been a "glass half full" kind of guy--until I bought an iMac and iPhone. Truth be told, both are better know as iPatch. You think Windows has gone through a lot of releases...iPhone patches bugs as often as they hit my windshield!

This most recent one holds a LOT of promise.  Patch 4.0 was supposed to make the iPhone 4 better...a case of trying to fix the vapor ware and even give the 3G some of the missing functionality that Palm had when it was released 10 something years ago.  Well, you can guess that most of that new functionality came at a price--the new functions along with eveything else were unbearably slow!  Apple's answer, like their answer to the clever iPhone 4 antenna was ... you're on your own dude. 

After enough bad press here comes the fix.  We'll see...but don't hold your breath.  Then again, if you hold your breath just right...MAY BE the phone will run faster!  Now, there's a thought!

Shop is ready to be painted!

The outside entrance.



I'll probably shorten the piece coming into the room from the outside wall and add a bezel both at the ceiling and wall entrance for a more finished look.



This is the entrance way into the crawl space. This piple exits into the ceiling shown in the above picture.
