Half the fun is getting there and being there.

Plus I have acquired some ballast during my course. Its time to get back in shape. A good shape would be less round than currently.

About being there/getting there...

On the Sulpher Mountain lookout Banff.

On a lake in Saskatchewan.

Sometimes the photos are no good but there's always the view. Nearly always worth the effort.

And climbing Mt Warning. Have done this in the dark as well. All good fun until someone falls over the edge or gets lost in the bushes.

Even the photos of you taking photos are impressive..

Lying in a hotel room in Narrabundah, a day of work at Brindabella Park tomorrow. Anyone nearby for a meet'n'greet?

Gee you get around Gonz

The Gonz · **Reply #1355: July 30, 2013, 13:39:48**

Not really, Dazz, I've been relatively sedentary this year.

Phil №❶ · **Reply #1356: July 30, 2013, 13:45:14**

Where in Narrabundah, I've stayed there too.

I'm on Best Western Garden City's complimentary wifi.

If you get bored you can always pay the Kambah Pool a visit....I hear the views are pretty good!

The Gonz · **Reply #1359: July 30, 2013, 13:59:03**

Thanks, Rusty - I think.

I'd have second thoughts of the 'sandy spots' on that 'beach'.

Nothing like air gap security, Phil. I choose carefully which HDD is in the PC for any specific situation. Sometimes I work directly off the boot USB. Besides, there are good reasons not to take work home with you.

rustynutz · **Reply #1367: July 30, 2013, 14:10:00**

Clothes are optional, Rick....so you can keep your wrinkled old pear covered while you have a look see...

Phil №❶ · **Reply #1368: July 30, 2013, 14:10:36**

I figured we'd be a bit more secure than that.

I can tell you go to somewhere like that and walk around clothed,believe me you feel more awkward than you do in your birthday suit,because you look like a leper in a health spa

+ have been enjoying this kind of training equipment for a month at my work (I have got one at home too, but less complicated and bought in Finland; used for push-ups only as the door frames in my flat are too narrow for it); use it for pull-ups. a price is quite cheap - 990rub (32 USD roughly)

- it has been raining for two days

+ my car's in for its 9 year (112,500 mile) service

- it's already 14:00 and they haven't started it yet

+ they loaned me an all-electric Nissan Leaf (fabulously quiet and awesome acceleration)

- the Nissan Leaf looks like it was designed by a drunken bum with a headache
