Good afternoon faithful reader. Just a quick word on the website updates. I have uploaded the new Book, Movies, Music, Video Game and Train databases to the site. I have a sneaky feeling that I will be working on created a true database system for all them plus Godzilla, and Camping Trips! I need to start learning about DB’s again!
My Iron Maiden obsession has continued to grow. I am now only missing two of their studio released albums. 16 of 18 albums! I am thinking of getting a few of their live albums and even the second Greatest Hits album. It’s a sickness! But they are so good and the music is great! Here are the two latest albums added to my collection and playlists!


On a more personal note, I have just had a crown “corrected”. Some of the more faithful readers may remember my troubles back in August in regards to a botched root canal. Well, the repairs have begun.
Book 3 has stalled. I got caught up in trying to use Scrivener for Book 3 and it seems that it is giving me an excuse to not write. I think I need to go back to my Word docs and just get it done. Then when the dust settles, I can jump back in to it and use it for the Adventure novels.
On the scout front, I just completed the 2nd Chief Pontiac Trail! 10.5 miles of hiking with a 40lb pack and 2 nights of camping followed with 6.5 miles of canoeing! I gotta tell ya, that I was more afraid of the first hike than this one even though I was carrying FAR more weight! I fell only once, going up hill. In all fairness and with full disclosure, the ground crumbled beneath my feet and I only fell to a knee and hand.
Over all the trip was a success! The 5 scouts and 4 adults had a ball and we are now looking forward to January and completing the last leg, which is a winter hike! I’ve been hesitant because of the snow and coldness and extra gear, but the hike/trail coordinator mentioned utilizing a sled to carry the gear and we drag it behind us! I had not thought of that! I’m stoked for the winter trek now!
Well that’s it for now. It has been a busy week and I hope you’ll check back next week for the next great installment in my dull life!
TTFN!
