the return to the home port


Nice to have Big Cat home for the summer. Picked it up from storage yesterday after running a few errands and having lunch at a small local family owned restaurant. Pretty chilly around these parts for this time of the year but bringing the rig home helps to elevate the spirit of spring.

Heading for home.

Winter's receding shadow


Looks like clear sailing from here on through summer. Some lingering snow lays behind me as I took this photo of the front yard, all the forecasts show nothing but some rain during the next 7 days. That was one winter I'll be happy not to dwell on. So the work ahead consist of raking and general tidying up of the surrounding yard. We're planning to build a attached shed along the north wall of the garage that will replace the two freestanding ones we have now, each has seen better days. Next weekend the camper comes out of storage and maybe the I'll roll the grill out to the deck. Tune ups on the lawn tractor and the walk behind lawnmower probably should happen as well though there have been a few seasons when I've just checked for oil, added some gas and I was good to go.

When "just a little is enough" isn't quite enough

So "isn't quite enough" what can be done, buy a domain name. Google the hosting company where this blog resides has been teasing a bit about getting a domain through them and I thought what the heck, $12 per year and when I searched for what was close to the blog's name that might be available, lo and behold there was "www.justalittleisenough.com" just waiting for me. After which I managed to bugger up the setup but a call to Google help and I was up and running in no time. The support person Louie quickly went though the process with me pleasantly and efficiently. The old standby address (justalittleisenough.blogspot.com) will still work but once on the site the address bar will show the new domain. I'm not anticipating to garner fame and fortune from this but there is an ounce of satisfaction to being able to say "Hey, check out my blog at 'www.justalittleisenough.com'!
