I have started reading Dr. Nightingale Enters the Bear Cave by Lydia Adamson. So far, all of Lydia Adamson's books have been nice light reads.

In “Dr. Nightingale Enters the Bear Cave”, Didi starts off what was going to be nice week in the woods by finding someone dead in her cabin.

I have finally finished Bubbles In Trouble. This book was a little overboard for me. It had many funny parts to keep me going.

Bubbles Yablonsky's friend Janice does a no show on her own wedding. Janice's uncle is found dead. Bubbles goes undercover as Amish widow to find Janice and determine who killed Janice's uncle.

Our beers have been working nicely for some time now. We have one that has all, but stopped so that means only one thing.

Time to keg that beer!

I would be kegging it today, but I determined that I was out of CO2. (You need to fill the keg with CO2 prior to filling in order to remove the air.)

Normally, I keg my beer in soda kegs. This time, I had wanted to use Fass Frisch Mini Kegs which hold about 1 1/3 gallons. I received these as a gift years ago from my mother, but I have never used them. I am missing the bung which seals the keg. I may have to switch back to using my soda kegs, but I want to try these mini kegs so that I could take keg to parties. “Have beer will travel” has always been my idea planning ahead.

As time goes on, I realize that you just can't take pictures all the time without some place to put them. I have decide it is time to do some research into bigger hard drives.

LaCie d2 DriveI am looking at getting the LaCie d2 Hard Drive. The idea of two 250GB drive looks go to me. I should be able to setup a RAID and share the space between the servers hosting my company's stuff and my personal stuff.

 LaCie Mobile DriveI like the LaCie band. I have had no problems with my LaCie Mobile Hard Drive 80GB drive. But, it is too small to back up everything. I doesn't have enough room for all my daily files like photos and music. (The important stuff!)
