Heart and Stroke Splash For Heart

Our bedraggled heroes have returned from their quest to ride 25 km for the Heart and Stroke Society.  In  actuality they traveled about 36 km because they snuck a few extra (ill-advised) km in there, and instead of cycling that distance, they swam.

Erin and I are still collecting donations until the 14th, you can donate to our individual links here: 
Erin's donation page is here
Geoff''s donation page is here

Now enjoy pictures of  our soaked, and heroic selves:
To quote a book of recent popularity "Blub, bluuub, bluuuuuuuuubbb"

Productive Day

It was a bit of a mad house here today, got a lot done, and am on my way up to bed to crash.

Dishwasher finally arrived, and got it installed, with no less then two hardware store visits, and a real oh duh moment.  So the builder roughed in the electrical for the dishwasher leaving a cable with the ends capped in the dishwasher opening in the kitchen, and the breaker for that circuit tripped in the box.  Okay no problem, just leave it off, wire the dishwasher, and flip the breaker and your solid right?  Wrong...  Why? Because the builder actually disconnected the live wire from the breaker in the box.  Easily fixed but had me worried.

Also finished hanging the pair of hanging baskets outside, and got a little bit of art up on the walls.

Finally, AC was installed, and its been going since ~7 and I haven't seen it stop draining water off the condenser, like not trickling water, but like pouring water out of the air.  It's just humid in here.
