Been kind of quiet out here so thought I see how everyone is doing.

Hunkering down, gardening, home schooling my kids, spending too much time on company meets on Teams, walking on the beach whenever possible, and doing remote support for my work-at-home colleagues.

"Hello, IT - have you tried turning it off and on again?"

They've shut down our Bay Area jobsites and we've had some lay-offs. I'm in
the the office so having to work from home 2 days a week and commute in the other three. Up here in the hills it's been like a holiday with everyone
coming in for "vacation" from the Bay Area. Store keeps getting wiped out
and people everywhere. Lake has boats even with it being closed down. Not
sure how they are launching or maybe just sneaking in.... Crazy times....

We thought about going up to a family cabin last weekend to get out of the house, we figured we'd stay isolated and go play in the snow.

The local home-owners association sent an email asking people not to come, since they had 44 Coronavirus cases in the local hospital (with 46 beds) and that they were taking the opportunity with the lack of vacationers to work on the water system.

I need to dig through my old photo boxes and see if I have any photos of the "bat cave" that I worked in from 1993-1995 - looked almost exactly like the
IT Crowd set. We had a door to a storage room that, had I known, would have painted bright red.

They tried that up here but everyone just thumbed their nose at them. We've had 12 cases in our county and most have recovered. Now we have some hot weather coming in and I can only imagine what we are facing this weekend. Oh-well, we'll just stay hunkered down and work on the property for fire season. Once we get through all this Covid stuff then we get to have the P.G.&E. power shutoffs for fire weather..... Fun, fun....

I seem to be working fine. Not sure what the strange errors I get are about. I'm going to try and see if I can find them in a log for further review.

Thanks!
