I must have slipped off the edge of the Intarweb

Wow...last post was near the beginning of summer..and now this post is near the end of summer. I'll describe the typical evening around the Ranch:

1. Get home from work around 5 pm
2. Sit and settle for 1/2 hour to 45 minutes - drink of water and a light snack
3. Work on some yard-related task until dark, or 8pm, whichever comes first.
4. Some TV and dinner.
5. In Bed by 9:30 - the weekdays start at 5 am.

There has been some time away on the weekends when I do visit my parents and take care of their yard.
I have worked on other things, like finishing wiring the garage and adding a window-unit air-conditioner to the garage. But that's basically how it's been up until Labor Day weekend.
I finished adding topsoil to the backyard, put down grass seed and covered it with wheat straw.
This past week I've been getting home from work and wondering what to do with myself. That and fighting an idiotic networking problem with the machines at the Ranch.

But I thought I should drop by and blow the dust out of this site. Hope I didn't make too much of a mess.
