A Great Paddle, New Computer -sort of

Monday, we spent most of the day at Hillsborough River State park. We enjoyed a picnic lunch on the river. It was a nice paddle. I will let the pictures tell the story....







 We really enjoyed being back on the river - the day was just perfect!
 
Yesterday, we went to Flatwoods Park.  Catherine ran and I biked.   Then a day of chores.  I repaired a flat tire on my bike.  It's been a long time since I did that, but it was not too bad.  I started to install a new hard drive into Catherine's old Mac.  My netbook fan is getting ready to go by the sounds of it. I decided I could put a new hard drive in the mac and have a better computer for the price of fixing the little net book.  After I got the old hard drive out, I realized I did not have a Torx #6 screwdriver to remove the mounting posts. So, that project got put on hold.  I bought the screwdriver yesterday at Best Buy and now the set up process for the old/new mac is well underway.  Even with the extra $.  I should have a "new" Mac for under $100.
Catherine is off earning some travel money by doing massage today and I am finishing chores.

  1. We love paddling on the Hillsborough.

    We just found you a great waterfront place here in the Keys. Waterfront on a canal, boat davits, room to park MH and a big lot. Price reduced recently to $249k. I know you're looking in the Tampa area but if you change your mind, I'll send you some pics.

  2. Nothing like a few of nature's beasts to make your paddle enjoyable. Looks like you've almost worn out your camera with all those incredible pictures! ;c)
