Brilliant stuff @Matt Just brilliant. And your girls are delightful too. That Star Wars tee shirt, I would wear 

[Matt]

@neph93  I'll ship it to you free of charge when the little one's grown out of it if you promise to create a whole post dedicated to you doing stuff around the house in it.

I can do that. Although it may only fit over my head.

It's yours in roughly 2 years…

Canals in The UK and a shit load more sedentary than that…..

[Matt]

That was the Potomac River.  The canal is actually what the boat was sitting in.  It's been abandoned as a canal for quite some time and the towpaths that were used by mules to tow the ships are now the hiking and bike paths.  I was looking for a good pic of the canal and the locks but I must have neglected those.  Sorry.

[Matt]

The canal that runs parallel to the river was only about 50' away.  If I had turned around from that ship pic you would have seen the rapids.

New batteries are in and I got a great deal on them.  I get a perverse satisfaction from figuring out all the right coupon codes one can obtain from joining mailing lists…

[Matt]

Now we’re engaged in some real in depth soul searching about solar panels vs generators for when we’re off grid.  Any thoughts from those who may have been experience or even an uneducated opinion that’s interest would be welcome.

[Matt]

Also I fixed some interior rivets with my new rivet gun and drill…

[Matt]

This was a simple task that gave me a disproportionate amount of joy.  I highly recommend it.

[Matt]

Happy Father's Day dads!!!

Here’s my FD breakfast in The Tin Palace.  Chicken and waffles with sausage gravy, eggs, black coffee and NYT Crosswords…

[Giles]

Note to self.  Must buy rivetting tool (then find something to do with it)….

[Matt]

To help set the scene, I’m listening to this while I eat…

[Matt]

26 days and counting…

Our new washing “machine”…

[Matt]

I tested it out on the kids clothes this morning.  It's pretty slick.  All my denim is clean and put away until things cool off so it will be a while before I get to test it out on those.  I'll be sure to post any photos of a wash day that includes any of my IH shirts to try to keep things Forum relevant.
