News Around the Island
You know it is going to be a good day when a tech shows up at
your door, repairs your laptop in fifteen minutes and leaves without presenting
a bill. Yeah! I just love SONY. My laptop had a recall on the cooling fan
because it sounded exactly like the space shuttle at lift off.
Except louder.

Sony sent Chris, from
Smart Lab Computer Repair,
to our house this morning. Chris removed about 3000 screws from the back of
my Sony Vaio and switched-out the clunker fan for a sleeker, shinier, more
powerful and whisper-quiet fan.

And then he was gone. Poof.
I continued my office purge and trip organization bender. I
think our paper shredder may run away during the night in protest.

You can see from the above photo
that we have a circular driveway. It curves and you probably can figure that
our motorhome does not. DT, My Driver and Best Husband EVER (BHE), has
agreed to go fetch the Magna Peregrinus tomorrow and bring her up
to the house so I can organize everything for our trip with ease. This is no
small feat, but since we recently had the trees in the driveway circle
trimmed, maybe our non-bendable RV will squeeze into the driveway without
receiving scratches!
Is it hot where you are? It is still hot here. Want a ten minute recipe for
dinner you can prepare hours ahead? Try my
Gazpacho recipe. It
is actually good for you. Vegan even. Delicious. Pulse the ingredients in
your blender or food processor and "it's soup" in seconds.

It's pretty too.
Until my next update, I remain, your busy correspondent.
