Alright, alright, I know that I've been negligent in posting. So, what have I been doing? Well.

Two weekends ago I went to Las Vegas for the weekend to visit Tony, we stayed away from the strip and did the local thing. Saturday we went up to Mount Charleston and the Floyd Lamb National Park Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, did some hiking and drank beer at the ski lodge. I'll post the rest of the pictures when I can.



Last weekend I bought a refrigerator and clothes dryer from a guy at work who was moving, my dryer hadn't been working very well, and the refrigerator is an upgrade, so it worked out perfectly. I rented a U-Haul and dolly, and picked the two appliances up with no problem, he lives in Old Oaks, just down the street from where my parents live. I got them into my house without too much difficulty, and spent the weekend getting them hooked up and running. It doesn't sound like much work, but you pull the old refrigerator out, and you say "well as long as I'm here I'll clean out underneath" and then after you transfer all the food, you say "well, as long as everything is out, I'll give the old refrigerator a good cleaning" and "I need to run new dryer exhaust vent" and "I think I'll run a water line to the old refrigerator so I can have ice in the garage too" and pretty quickly it becomes a weekend job.

What next? I'm taking the next couple of days off, trying to get caught up with some personal projects. I'm going to Alabama for a week in September, and then I'm spending a week in Orlando at NACE Corrosion Technology Week (this is like a corrosion engineer's convention, only more technical).
