Back from the cottage. It was a great weekend (weather wise). We have not opened the cottage for a long time, so we had a bit of trouble getting the water in. I think that we would do it differently if we are doing it next year (like have a foot value so we don't have to prime the pump so many times). Ah well. Lessons learned. But one thing that I will say, it is a lot easier to put the dock in than out. ;-) We only have to move it two feet down, and not like 30 feet UP. It was good seeing family too. I played cribbage a bit. It is like riding a bike... and just as much fun. I have to find more people that play it. I had not played it in like two years, which is far, far too long.

Since I haev spent the weekend at the cottage, I don't really have any technical things to talk about. I was going to go over my UNIX book to brush up on things for work, but I didn't really have (or make) time. Going out in the canoe or writting a letter to my friend took higher priority. I needed a bit of a brain break. I didn't even get much of my book read at all! I think that I am going to ease off reading for a bit. I spend a lot of time doing that, and I have a lot of other things to do. I am starting to agree with Peter when he says that if there were 40 hours in a day, it would be about perfect. Almost enough to get everything that I want to do in that amount of time. Almost.
