Rat's Nest Wiring



I'm from the rat's nest school of electrical wiring. Here is a wonderful example. The surprising thing is that it actually works (properly):) I bet you can't wait to hear me explain how!

Mom turns 93!


Mom turns 93! Still going strong. We celebrate her birthday with a visit to the replica of the ship that conveyed the original settlers to Wilmington Delaware. This ship was part of the fleet that sailed to Baltimore for Sailabration 2012 and came to Solomons Harbor afterwards for a four day visit.

Strasburg's bawdy side discovered





Some citizen's of Strasburg are enjoying the new burlesque house and convenient pubs next door. The local rumor has it that the Tmen (and women) have put their stamp of approval on it so all should be copacetic so long as everyone behaves. (good luck with that:)

Fixer Upper



Marked down, now just 1 gazillion, was 2 gazillion. There are lots of these houses down here where the construction has been abandoned/suspended . This 4 garage beauty has an ocean view to die for. I imagine it must wind up costing a mint to get a builder to take on someone else's half finished job.
