the world from my point of view
Deerhorn The downstairs renovation is ramping up. I made some room in one of the garages to store some tenant stuff that was previously stored downstairs. The plumber visited today to mark out the location of the main drain. The exact layout of the bathroom needs to be determined and then there will be some…
Christmas Zooming with family in Toronto, up the mountain for some sledding, and a whole lot of unproductive Netflix, and time online. Defender The rear locking differential definitely made a difference in the snow. I know the axle splines are worn out on the front and are next to sort out so considering replacing the…
Carol Parade I caught wind of the Carol Boat Parade happening in Sechelt Inlet again this year. I borrowed Christmas lights from the house and put them on the boat. This year I had family on the boat. I am usually the only one on the boat while others join parties ashore. Thanks COVID! Molly…

Valerie Valerie’s Christmas present. The Girls and I are embarking on an effort to do a ‘make-over’ of Valerie’s workspace.Valerie will get a new desk (which can be raised and lowered with electric motors), dual display (with mount), a draft table light, computer mount and more compact keyboard. I had already prepared a slab for…
