A little catch up this morning on my blog and life bits. Paid some bills for Helen and analyzed how I can pay Visa. I'm about $500 short but AVSA owes me lots of money. Am going to hook up the APRS in the car to see if I can reach aprs.fi. The car provides a good ground plane I hope.
Not true about the ground plane. Drove the rig to the greenhouse with the antenna on the roof. Could not see my packets on aprs.fi.
The greenhouse was doing great. Hot Dawg 2 was off, the load was being handled by Hot Dawg 1. It was 37 outside which was pretty cold. Left at 11:15 for the opera. Stopped by Northern Tool and got a wheel for my chair. It was the last one left. The opera was fantastic, Simon Boccanagra. Placido and James Morris were very good, the Verdi music carried the opera as usual. It was long, 4 hours worth. Stopped by a very crowded Trader Joe's on the way home to pick up something for dinner. For dinner I microwaved a Trader Joes Canneloni.
