Until I met our wifey, I was driving an old Toyota Camry that was plagued with concerns. The radiator and power steering rack both leaked incessantly, forcing myself and others to refill the radiator on a near biweekly basis if I wanted to make it to our task without frying the engine. My wifey and I pooled our finances together […]
Personal air coolers aren’t going to help camping if the weather is too humid
I see a lot of junk products in the “as seen on TV” area at the local department store. I’ll never forget those copper-coated fry pans that promised to be a non-stick miracle.

I was gleeful to spend a week on the beach in a vacation rental with my wife

Last week I watched a documentary about the Northwest Passage, a once-difficult trek through the Arctic Ocean around […]
Fixing troubles with drafts to improve heating & cooling performance
Learning correct lake house care has been a process of non-stop trial & error. When I was a renter, I neglected a lot of my responsibilities because I didn’t own the device & didn’t care too much about how it looked after I left. On top of that, the house buildings consistently had a handyman of some kind who would […]
