Did that and remembered to get out a burrito for breakfast. :-) Warm it up and lay a sunny side egg ( or two) on top and voilà! Breakfast!!!!
While perusing my normal blog offerings this morning.. Hermit Jim, AGAIN!! Hit the nail on the head..
And reading Barney's post from last evening brought back a memory.
Back in my serious fishing days (70’s) I used to fish off the Texas City Dike on occasion. If you’ve never fished it, that dike runs out into the Bay a long way (5 miles) and there is a road on top with pull offs. I had several favorite places I liked. We learned real quick to keep a wary eye to the bay because when one of the loaded ocean going ships came into the bay they put off a heck of big wave. IF you knew what to watch for , you had plenty of time to move you and your stuff UP the rocks out of the way of the approaching wave surge.
I often would not mention the approaching wave to new comers and just stand up nice and dry and watch them get splashed!! Hey! No one ever got sucked in but a few would have to scramble for their ice chest of other items they left unsecured.
Once the incoming surge passed, the returning action would cause a water level rise as well.
Fun times playing in the water fishing.
Going to do some shopping,or rather looking, online.. Need a new style hard drive to put in this fancy ass camera system so it will record detected activity from my cameras. AND I need a new Linksys wireless router so I can send live video from it to my office wi-wi hub and let it display a live camera on line for you, ( or me when I'm not home)
Almost 10AM and I finally managed to feed the new OS (outside) cameras to a program here on the computer . Made a funky , NON-professional video for ya in case you're real bored or what to see what I can see here. I put the short video up on my You Tube Account HERE it's sort of quick but you can pause it of course.
OK, that's outta the way. now some online shopping, or parts hunting really. ;-)
4PM plus a little, Just fed the lazy A cats. Ole Bud Bob ran by and dropped off ( sold me) a router just like I needed that he was going to return for refund anyway. Found out why he had not updated his blog also. Found out he hadn't updated his blog lately cause a line to his his router had a bad connection . So I saved him a trip and got me a router without having to go to town. :-) AND along that line I got a geek guy/kid coming out Sunday to get this camera system set up on line so you can view it , IF I give you the password that is. :-) Couldn't get him out before then, something about a bunch of college kids and new Christmas gift techie items set up.
Trying to decide if I want a big ole pasta with shrimp for supper or something more simple . Decisions, Decisions :-)
Y'all stay dry, loving this rain here... showing about 1/2"since morning here.
9PM plus... About those dinner choices? Changed my mind , again, like a blond at the flashing Walk, Don't Walk sign. :-) Make me up some Tuna Salad, worked out good, even added a touch of garlic powder to it cause I like garlic .
Showers moved back in after dark with some pretty good showers on an off. But it should all move out later . It Better cause I GOT to get to the store and restock some things.
Coffee pot made up,cats in.. I'm outta here.
We have been getting thunderstorms since a little after mid-night. Most rain I have seen in way over a year. I even heard some frogs singing this morning. It is still raining, so expect more, I am sending up your way.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dizzy. The rain you sent is here!! Off and on. I planned on just staying in today and watch it rain!!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good plan to me! Raining here also, so I'm not planning to go anywhere!
ReplyDeletePretty neat set-up you have with your cameras.
Have a great day!
Yep, Hermit, good day to stay in and dry and warm.
ReplyDeleteYou could put up a set of cameras to keep an eye on your estate there . See outside so no one or thing slips up on you. :-)
Really I feel pretty safe here, I just like to see what's going on out side.
You want the ole 4 camera system I took down?
