These are a few snapshots from video I took on Monday, May
22, 2000
Well there is a lot of work going on at the house, but it isn't very
interesting to look at. There's insulation going in, some sheet rock going up,
and lots and lots of chinking going on. So... I though I would just show you a
nice Spring afternoon at the ranch.
On the way up to the Ranch I got some video of this Rainbow. Like I said a
nice Spring afternoon
 Pretty cool,
huh?
 There's not much is
changing at the house worth showing. Here's the living room from the kitchen.
 A truly wired house. Here is a small
sample of the thousands of feet of RG-6 Coax and Cat5-E twisted pair cables. I
finally got all the connectors in and tested. There are 17 data outlets with 2
RJ-45's and 2 coax connections each. Also had to do the ends where they all
meet at the patch panels in the utility room. That's 68 RJ-45 connections and
68 coax connections. It took 3 days of tedious work to get all these labled and
working.
 I decided to sit for a
while on the front porch. Here's what the garage looks like these days. The
garage doors are in and working and all the windows and doors are in.
Turning to the left this is the view out the driveway. Timber and I decide
to take a walk.
 We walk over to the pond. I realize I
have't shown much of the rest of the Ranch on my web site, so I'll try to show
more of it in the future.
 Timber always
likes to go for hikes. Here he is reflected in the pond...
 ...and in the
pond. He's watching the fish jump. He thinks its where I've thrown something
for him to fetch.
 I finally find a
stick (they all end up in the pond) and throw it for him to fetch. He's great
at fetching, but its hard to get the stick back whole. He chews them up!
 A happy wet dog.
 Here I'm looking across the pond back
towards the house.
 We decide to
head back home
 As usual, Timber
is way ahead of me
 Back at the
house, and Timber's on guard watching everything...
 ...including
me.
