Three months and Bigger Stupider

Well, those months went by pretty fast. I've no idea wat I was doing for much of that time, but few things in life are more memorable than driving for 20 hours on your own, with only the briefest of pauses to sleep in the back of a truck in Walmart's parking lot in Red Deer AB and another to view the world's (claimed) largest Croatian Easter egg.

I tell you, that's memorable and no mistake. The purpose of all that memorable journey was to exchange faithful Big Stupid for a different large, white, Ford vehicle... which has yet earn its name. For now, I'm calling it "Bigger Stupider". 

The photo album below might clue a person in as to why we bought such a large white vehicle. One day I might even write something about all the various tinkering and jiggery-pokery that has gone into this thing. But probably not.

More to come on this topic, but for now let me just say this:
