Working in the garage.

Been working in the garage. Organization. Storage. Clean-up.

Might throw down some grass seed in the front yard next week. Maybe pour some concrete.

Lots of riding, of course.

Finally had to buy a new hard drive. Average life-span is four years. Our 40GB lasted nine years. Got “The Blue Screen of Death” several times, heard a lot of hashing…so drove to Best Buy yesterday and picked up a 2TB external.

For nerds:
original drive is 40,000,000,000 bytes (40 billion)
new hard drive is 2,000,000,000,000 bytes (2 trillion)
That’s 50 times more storage for less than I paid nine years ago!
In 1997 I had a computer with a 2MB (2 million) hard drive. That’s only 1/1,000,000 (millionth) of my drive today and it cost nearly twice as much.
