True story time. I “found” a new sample book on my kindle the other day. Obviously I downloaded it myself, but don’t remember when nor why, since I didn’t recognize the title. Started to read the sample, got to the end of it and felt the book was worth spending ten bucks on it, and […]

Finding lost treasure
Many, many moons ago, I was once married: Gail and I were together for 11 years, but we separated/divorced in 2000. Fast forward to 2006, and I sold the house Rose and I had lived in when we were together (the first time), and moved into a smaller townhouse, in “Beautiful Downtown Apple Valley”. During […]
Spending time with The Little Girl
Spent the afternoon and evening with the little girl and her baby sister yesterday (along with GranMaRose). Drove up to Orchestra Hall (big mistake, due to 35w construction Downtown) to hear some international music. We listened to two different groups outside, near the WCCO studio park/garden. One group played African drums, the other group sang […]

Anything to get out of those jobs, so I took it. You had to discern twenty pattern recognition examples in twenty mins. I think I did alright, finishing […]
Relaxing music video – drums
This is just so relaxing. Used to listen to a jazz drummer by the name of Billy Cobham all the time when I was a teen ager/young adult. Played his “Funky Thide of Sings” album over and over.
Build of Shipyard Brewery – 6 of 6
After not touching this project for the last week or so, as soon as I got home tonite, I sat down at the project table and started working on this effort again. Finished all the shingling of the front and rear main roofs, shingled the two dormers (front/rear) and glued them on. Added rolled tar […]
Build of Shipyard Brewery – 5 of 6

You can see the front dormer and the front clerestory here on the shingled front roof. Still have to shingle the rear main roof, then glue on the rear dormer and rear clerestory. […]
