San Diego day 4
We had a lunchtime get together at Megan’s house the morning after the wedding. Toured Balboa Park again, this time with my parents. It’s an incredible place. I can’t believe the variety of flora and fauna. Some of the trees remind me of Dr. Seuss. Also toured Old Town and had dinner at an authentic Mexican restaurant with a mariachi band! The weather was even colder and more wet...

It was a dream wedding!
Who could ask for a more picture perfect wedding! My cousin Megan, the professional dancer and Pilates instructor, was married today at a beautiful venue. Right on the water, view of downtown San Diego across the way, sail boats going by, lots of friends and family, warm weather (after the cool ocean breeze died down), great music, great food, and fun dancing…who could ask for more. They even...

Cold, wet San Diego
Drove from Sacramento to San Diego today. After two days of straight driving, I’ve got a major case of TB…tired butt! Northern California was scorching hot and dry, but when we got to San Diego it was cold (in the low 60s) and wet. Apparently it hasn’t rained for months until the day we arrived! Go figure. Hopefully the weather will clear up for the wedding tomorrow which will be mostly...

Long day of driving finally over but...
Drove from Portland to Sacramento today! Got about 50 mpg in our Honda Civic hybrid, nice. It was a beautiful drive with lots of sunshine, scenic mountains, and also ran into a swarm of bugs that covered the whole windshield with bug guts near the rice fields North of Sacramento. Yuck! One more day of driving in store for tomorrow. Driving straight through to San Diego. We hope to get through...

Computer maintenance status
For my Guilt-free IT clients, we made it through the last round of major Microsoft updates in the last two weeks, so computer maintenance work is light now. I will resume maintenance as soon as I get back with a planned Vista SP2 update for those who have Vista computers.

Interactive Outlook 2003 and 2007 →
This is really useful if, for example, you don’t have Outlook 2003 anymore and you need to see how the menu commands work. No need to install Outlook 2003! Very useful for IT support people like myself.

Digital Cameras
I can’t believe some of the features available on consumer level digital cameras these days! This new Nikon COOLPIX P90 has:
a 24X zoom
12.1 Megapixels
a huge LCD screen
image stabilization and motion detection automatically adjusting the image sensor and shutter speed respectively
up to 15 frames per second for capturing fast action like a golf swing
auto red-eye fix
auto focus on up...

Grow your own food indoors!
The more I learn about the world of processed foods, the more I want to cut them out of my diet completely. The FDA isn’t doing their job to protect us adequately. The unfortunate truth is when profits are involved, contamination of our food can happen and does get overlooked by the FDA. Example: http://bit.ly/OPU1s.
What can we do about it?
I first started researching if it’s...

Completed wifi upgrade
I finished upgrading the Corvallis Mobile Home Park with a 5 GHz backhaul. It should provide them with a more reliable system. I’m really liking the new EnGenius 5 GHz radios! They were a snap to install and configure. Thank you Invictus Networks for getting these new radios for me and supporting my wireless endeavors.
