Summer is here – along with the green, the deer, the bees, the wasps , and ….oh so wonderful ……- the swimming!
The pool is open and functional, though we are still working on the cosmetics around the house – and we will be working on that for the next year and a half at the very least.
Usha has put in a lot of effort, and so have the children – and we are seeing the results now.
I have become the local expert on attic and whole house fans. Spent 6 hours in the attic this past weekend , in greater-than-130-degree heat, and got the fans (one in the roof, the other in the ceiling of the 2nd floor) all functional and happy!
I also broke one of my firewalls – and have now decided to trash it and rebuild it from scratch. Watch my personal weblog (http://mani.akella.org) for the rest of the saga.
