The Big Storm went south, giving a much-needed boost to the ski economy in Utah. Our daughter Heather reported eight inches overnight in North Salt Lake. Some of my Twitter friends in Utah have reported up to a foot of new snow. Here in Pocatello we only got a very light dusting.<\/p>\n

\"DadSo now I’m at the computer writing this blog entry, drinking a cup of hot chocolate (Stevens Belgium Dark with a shot of vanilla), and munching some banana bread. We’ve been home about 45 minutes and I’ve certainly gotten comfortable! We went to Soda Springs this afternoon with a specific objective in mind: straighten up dad’s workshop. The picture is a “before” picture taken after we had been working in the shop for about a half hour. The first task was to get everything up off the floor (dad simply drops stuff on the floor when he doesn’t need it anymore). We then put a table into the shop with a number of bins for him to put thing in rather than just drop tools on the floor. After a couple of hours, the shop floor was clean. I’ve put some pictures in the picture album.<\/p>\n

We had dinner and drove back home to Pocatello.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow is a dual-dentist day. I’ve got an appointment at 8 a.m. to put in a new bridge in the top front and a new crown on the top left. That’ll leave a gap on the upper left, so it’s back to the dentist at 4 p.m. to put in a “flipper”. That’s a kind of a partial plate to fill the gap until I have an implant put in and a crown on top of the implant. The implant \/ crown process takes about six months for all the healing to take place.<\/p>\n

The other thing I’ve decided to do is to move my “twittering” to a new blog devoted just to that stream. Putting them into this blog, while interesting, seems to clutter up the blog and mask my “real” posts. So, tomorrow I’ll tell you where to find my tweets in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
