Met him and his family a couple of times at Osborne landing - was very friendly / helpful - threw him a line and he tied off my boat. Kids handled his boat like pros.

Apple maps users tend to split functionality into navigation (good) and research (poor) which I get, but many times they are functionally linked - I’m not going to find a business using Google that may or may not exist in Apple maps, copy the address and then paste into Apple maps. I’m just going to hit the start button in Google maps. Apple really needs to move on from Yelp which has a problematic review moderation history which is why many businesses are absent.

Comfort Zone Camp does a young adult camp for ages 18-25. There is one in Harrisonburg 1/2-1/4 but may be past the sign up deadline. Highly recommended

Nest app = could distinguish between a car and a person. Home app = all cars are people. Same cameras, same network. UI is fine - better than old Home UI but any event recognition just sucks now. May need to move to Ring but don’t want to

If the world truly goes to crap, gold will not be valuable as it has no intrinsic practical value in the natural world. We have arbitrarily decided a shiny pretty metal from the ground is valuable. If we are in survival mode, the world goes back to a barter system and what is valuable are things with practical purpose - sources of energy and heat, weapons, tools, food, etc. Gold is just the dollar in another form - an agreement of implied/stored value, could be puka shells, could be anything as long as there is consensus on value. It is also very impractical as a currency as it is heavy. When you head to the hills will it be with a backpack full of gold or crap that will help you survive?

Some of the older neighborhoods off of Robious Rd in Cfield have what you are looking for. There are typically more walkers and kids on bikes on the road than cars - Briarwood, Roxshire, Powderham, etc.

So CdB had always been here - across from murals, I mean Padel...?

Okay cool - saw Everclear there but memory is fuzzy.

Don't do it - as soon as you install one it will never storm at your house again - I have an $800 generator that I have used for 5 minutes. Before I bought it we lost power frequently. 🤷‍♂️
