June Already…

I can’t believe it is June already. So much of the year has gone past and I feel like so little has been accomplished. Here are a few highlights of the year so far:

  • Cameron has started to recognize some numbers (in the 0-9 range);
  • We bought a 2005 Toyota Tarago (please, no comments about filling all of the seats);
  • Olivia has started to sit up unaided.

Here are a few highlights “planned” for the rest of the year:

  • Another trip to Cheynes Beach for a holiday;
  • Spend some decent chunks of time in Perth (spent a fair bit of time in Dampier with work);
  • Get back into a regular Bible Study (see previous point).

Long time no update

  • I now have a Flickr web page. People seem to be visiting but not commenting… It contains photos of birds I have taken using my Canon 350D.
  • Still collecting old Apple/Mac computers (collection getting huge). I recently had a lot of fun with an Apple IIc that I picked up from the Quokka. All of the equipment and disks worked perfectly (and they were dated 1984). I also picked up 2x 350 MHz B&W G3 machines, a QuickTake 100, a 24-port 10/100 BayStack Switch, a PowerMac 5500/225 (along with numerous other bits and pieces).
  • Building a HO scale model train set (mainly LIMA gear) with Cameron (although he tends to specialize in stress testing). I will post photos soon.
  • My birding life list has now passed 100!
