Morning, campers. Started the day today at 39º. Ugh. My daughter was telling me that it was in the 60's day and night for the last week in Virginia. Perfect weather, she said. Notably not here where I am, I said. 

Making this post only visible to members (I'm assuming this works, Kosh) because I wanted to share:

It looks like when she finishes her project in Virginia that she is going to get assigned to the Seattle area. I'm rather bummed by this, as it means more time away from her husband. So those of you of a praying kind, I would ask that she get to go back and stay in California with her hubby.

Morning!  53 degrees and the kids are all on break, so dad got to sleep in until 8:30 this morning.  Decadence.

Seattle - Seattle or Seattle area?

If its Downtown she needs to prepare. No open toed shoes, clothes more Carhart than office chic, pepper spray and don't use Transit.

It's gorgeous, isn't it? Driving back from the Country Estate this morning, I saw a few hints of fall color in the leaves.

We have gone abruptly from very hot and dry to chilly and windy that it looks like the trees may be bare before they can change colors. Gives us a sad. ;-(

It was in the 90s a week ago and it's been very dry. I'm not the leaves will be worth driving up to the mountains for. OTOH I saw some pictures from New Hampshire that were amazing. I guess that's the trade-off for 8 months of snow.

Better get Little OR on the circuit. He's way cuter than Greta.

Looks like posts can't be marked private, and I have to fix something so we can actually post in the Frontier.

However, this site isn't indexed anywhere and only people explicitly informed of it can find it. With a temporary UR, search engines should consider it experimental if they even look for those sites.

What error do you get? Hard to tell what went wrong without the error.

Does it work now? Maybe a temporary glitch. I reloaded it to get your post and it worked fine.

ADT tech came. They never told him what part was having the problem so he didn't have one with him. Will get one and come back today.

I'm new, but would like to join in.  I've wanted to do this for a very long time and decided to try to register before it was closed.  I feel like I know you all already because I've been following along since LGF days.  I could never find an open registration there, but maybe that was a good thing.  How sad it was when that site went off the cliff.  Someone mentioned CC, so I found you all again!  When I saw CC2 was getting unstable and you were starting this blog (thanks Kosh), I tagged along again.  Hope I can be another voice in the sane world .  Alice

Reply to Kosh's Shadow in 17:   Thanks for the welcome.  Maybe I can talk tonight during the Packer game.  I'm a football widow.

Well, won't finish the password reset work tonight, but might do two other fixes:

1) Add refresh button to bottom of page

2) Make it possible to post into threads entered by the forums pages, so we can get into help, frontier, etc. from the list at the right of the main page
