Overall, things have been fairly quiet around here. People are starting to leave the area for the summer...though I suspect we will see an influx within the next few weeks for the leaf color tours. It is nice being able to drive through town without having to make my steering wheel blush! We have been on a bit of a stay at home kick...it has been very nice to just lay back and enjoy some of the remaining beautiful weather that we have been having. The temperatures have been in the mid 70s every day for over a week. The better part? We have had 0" of rain for two weeks to match the warm temperatures! The last two weeks have been better weather-wise than the entire summer.
We have had the auditors at work for our annual exam...good times. They have been busy in back and really have not asked me for much this year. I believe they are more concerned about financial information than they are the rest of the exam...but I feel my time will probably be coming. I have most everything I need for my part...and have been working to get everything that I do not have in order. I have been extremely busy getting reports and other items ready for everyone else...it has not been bad. It sure makes the days go by faster.
As for last weekend...I cut wood! I hoped I was not going to have to...but when we had our DirecTV gear upgraded we had to cut down a bunch of trees around the house. They have been sitting around for a couple weeks and I figured I had better get them picked up. So I hacked them up with the trusty ol' chainsaw. They are ready to be split and stacked now. More good times! I am thinking that over the next two weekends I will get it all finished up. I also discovered that bees have it in for me this year. Not only did I get stung nine times a month or so ago...I flipped over a piece of lawn furniture over the weekend...what do you suppose I found? A stupid bees nest. They swarmed up a bit...but I ran (like a little girl) to the other side of the house to get inside. A disaster avoided. These bees were bigger than the last. ;)
I think that pretty much updates everything for the last few days...I will start posting some information on the ORV ordinance as it draws closer to the live date...and of course snowmobiling as we come up on winter. There is a lot of fall left...so plenty of good pictures should be on their way! I did find a number of my pictures that I had lost with a software program called Flobo Photo Digital Photo Recovery. It works EXTREMELY well to get corrupt files off of removable media. I restored over 300 pictures in just 15 minutes or so. Very useful tool if you can still buy it.
That is it for now.
Goodnight from Northern Michigan!
