Our first week in San Felipe has flown by. Chuck and Larry have been busy adding electrical outlets to the shed/shop. Lynn has been unpacking and kicking back with a book. I have been attempting to put some work into my web sites. It seems I have diversified to the point of chaos so I am attempting to narrow my focus and work on one or two sites.

Yet is is easy to get distracted with new toys (Google Voice) and social interactions (Facebook) and I don’t seem to be making much progress on my ‘cash’ pages like SoWhereToFromHere and CheapLivingTips.

My cousin recently shared this photo on Facebook and I was so tickled by it that asked the photographer for permission to share it on my web page. It just goes to show you that where there is a will there is a way, yes?

However, if you are looking for a more conventional means of transporting your pets or wildlife, you can find all types of carriers at Amazon.

Pend Oreille River - Back Yard in Newport

It is difficult to grasp that we have been here in Newport, WA for almost two months. The days go by swiftly like the Pend Oreille River in the back yard.

Since my last post, we arrived here at Larry and Lynn’s (my brother and his wife) shortly after Jeremy’s (my grandson) graduation from high school in June.  We brought Torie and Alex (my niece and nephew) up to their grandparents for a visit.

I’m still  struggling with the new movie software and I was not able to find the “edit titles”  option so this is going up rather unfinished.  I only published about four minutes of the 30+ minute show. I tried to capture the highlights but it doesn’t do the display justice as it was nearly nostop like this for the whole presentation.  It was really incredible.  Very nice.  Hope all had a safe and sane Independence Day.

This post comes to you not from the deck in San Felipe but the deck in Pend Oreille County.  Our travels have taken us to a picturesque spot on the Pend Oreille River which has no DSL or even cable available so I have had to resort to using my USB air card from AT&T.  I selected the company with care after studying all the coverage maps for the competing providers.  AT&T rated high but I am sadly disappointed in the speed of transmission.  I am able to check email and Facebook but viewing videos online or uploading pictures is a major drag.
