1st day back on the job....the work load looks alot better than fayetteville...not nearly as many big surveys, and I don't think the rural ones will be quite the pain they were in NC. I did have to sketch several units today, but so far so good. I did a few of the furthest out today and plan on working my way in towards Cinci.

Laura has a mild case of the flu tonight, running a temperature of 99.3, which is a low fever, but nothing too serious, and nothing some dark chocolate peanut M&Ms and NyQuil can't help.

At least she had her appetite...we made burgers tonight and I had one with Bard's Tale Beer Dragon's Gold, bought specifically for the dragon bottle cap. It was mediocre, and now reading the label, I know why--no wheat, barley, rye, or oats, just whole grain sorghum. Hmmm...I think I'll pass on it next time in the store. I picked up a few other random beers in addition to a six pack of Rogue Dead Guy. This was the first time I had seen a six pack of regular size Dead Guy, so I couldn't pass it up.

Hopefully Laura is feeling better for the weekend. I talked to our neighbor who used to live here and he suggested all kinds of things in additon to the aquarium and KY Bourbon Trail: eat ribs at the Boathouse, go to his neighborhood of Mariemont, the conservatory, art museum, the Mount Adams area, and more ribs at the Montgomery Inn in Montgomery.

If anyone's interested, I'm selling a Pink Nintendo DS Lite with charger, stylus, carry case, Robot Atak GBA game, and Tak: The Great JuJu Challenge DS game all for $125.

Gotta get to bed early and get up early....I haven't been to bed in the past week before 1230 and can only make it out of be nearly 9. Not good for getting work done.

2015 Ford Fusion Replacement Rear Deck Subwoofers

Image
I bought a used 2015 Ford Fusion Titanium earlier this summer and didn't realize one of my rear subs was blown until after purchase. The Sony replacement through my Ford dealer was $80 for ONE, which seemed a little high. I scoured the internet for hours trying to find an affordable/better replacement, which is harder than you think since the original Sony speakers (BG1T-18971-CA) are 2.3 ohms (30w). Evidently, 2ohm subwoofers are a rarity. I called a couple audio shops in town and they had never even heard of them! I also did not want to replace true subs with a 3 way speaker. Finally after hitting several forums, I found CDT Audio (http://www.cdtaudio.com) having the 6x9 2 ohm subwoofers I needed! I emailed and called to make sure I was getting the right stuff, and ordered a pair of official refurbished CL-69Sub/CF for $100 (and cheap shipping!) http://www.cdtaudio.com/sep_components/subwoofers/cl69subcf.php I got in my trunk and looked to see if replacing them myself was i

Camp Hero State Park, Montauk NY

Image
Above: Trail map of Camp Hero State Park in Montauk NY On our last weekend on Long Island, we opted to skip going to the hustle-bustle of Manhattan and instead head East, past the Hamptons, to the very end of Long Island. On our way to  Camp Hero State Park  we had to stop off at the original  Lobster Roll  for, what else, lobster rolls! We grabbed them to go and kept heading east. A tip for all visitors: they aren't kidding about the ticks! Be sure your pet is up to date on their repellent, and I recommend human repellent too! I found several small ticks on my nether-regions, and a few chiggers made nice work of my legs too. We parked just south of the main entrance and ate our lunch along the bluffs near Battery 216, which was a small battery, nothing notable, though the view of the Montauk Lighthouse is impressive. Montauk Lighthouse, from Camp Hero Bluffs We then explored the trail near Battery 113 and climbed a steep trail to get onto the roof of the battery.
