It was raining when I got it going this morning and it showered on and off all day.
House cleaning
Well, I got something done on that today. My floors were past needing cleaning and I was going to use the vacuum on them but that always hurts my back in a short time. I got the dust mop out instead and did much better with that, but in the end my back still hurt, but at least I got it done.
I tried to go outside a couple of times, but, each time the rain drops sent me back in the house.
Ordering parts
I’ve been waiting for some dimensions on the shackles for my old van from the seller for a couple of days, but they never did get them for me. I took a chance and ordered up a couple of them and was warned they couldn’t be returned. Sometimes you just have to take a chance.
Dirt bike starter
I found a new starter for the bike on EBay so joined them and ordered one of those up.
Rat bait station
I noticed my bait station was empty today and was going to put some more bait in it, but I forgot, so now I will post this and go out and put some bait in the station.
The rain this winter is more than we’ve seen down here since 2016. Nice day though and your house is cleaner!

Header Pictures
There are over a hundred pictures that are served up randomly every time you visit or change pages. They are of earlier pictures of interest and also some just to remind me of things.
A Sony AX33 4K, a video camera that takes stills too. What am I doing with that? I take pictures from my Kayak a lot. I found I was missing interesting shots, because my pic was being processed in my camera, before it would let me take another pic. Since I like to take what I call action stills, I bought this camera to take videos, that I could make stills out of, but, as a bonus, this camera also came with buttons to just take stills and that's what I mostly do, unless something is real interesting or too far away for my still zooms. My digilat zoom setting for video goes to two hundred x, and sometimes I need that, but usually, I only use the 10x lens zoom. Because this camera is HD and 4K, the quality has to be real good and it has a lot of stabilizers on it which really helps out a lot for taking pics on the water.
The other thing it has that is a must is a view finder and I had to buy Sony's top of the line cam to get it. This is a must for taking pics on the water, as you must hold the camera as still as posible and putting that eye piece to the eye forms a tripod with your arms that helps a lot. The eye piece is also a must as it works way better than a LED screen to see what you are taking a picture of in the daylight as the LED screens wash out easily in sunlight.
I also have another video camera, a Canon VIXIA G30. I use them both to mostly take stills. The Sony takes higher resolution stills than the G30. That was a bit of a disappointment as I bought the G30 to replace an older camera I dunked in the river, but then had to buy the Sony to get higher still picture resolution that the G30 was lacking.
The dust is velvet, the cobwebs silk threads.
