so driving along last night, jeep full of family and the back brake calliper siezes! smoke and hot melted metal. parked it in richmond...then drove back today and thanks gawd for dave..got it running again. it was grand to have them all here at my digs...made a huge italian feast, set a table (which i must admit i had not done in a long time, hence the baseboards at behind the table)
well, it arrived....my sexy lil netbook laptop! fits in my bag, 2.5 lbs, 160G h/d...wirless, camera, sd ram slots etc. i friggin love it! my life now portable..it is so tiny.
mv fleetwood...a rum runner from years gone by.
in richmond yesterday.. went to the brittania shipyard at steveston. dave's dad bought a big wooden boat when he was a kid and ran fishing charters to alaska. well seems that boat was owned by nelson skalbania..and when it was built it was for running alcohol during prohibition years in the 30's. it was converted to a pleasure craft in the 50's..and now been donated to the shipyard museum. so we went out there a had a great tour of the site and boat...the volunteers are so passionate about the hand restoration....daves dad died at 48 so it was kinda like a link to his the memory of his childhood and his dad..was neat.
today hits some balls at the range...the sunshine was good on my face. reminds me that when things seem too dark, if you raise your eyes you will find the light.
