Good morning all, yet the end of another week. Well, actually, that's tomorrow but we usually count the weekend separately.
Did a really dumb thing. I spent all day yesterday trying to get my new computer working right. I kept getting "missing files" boot error messages to the point that I went ahead and reset the OS. It took two hours to make it factory-fresh and I was still getting occasional boot errors. Then I remembered, I had put in a thumb drive that I copied boot files to a while back and the computer was trying to boot to that USB drive.

Hah, old age strikes again..... The next challenge, getting this and the new machines talking to each other.
Getting ready for another hot one today, around 105. Again, temps under 100 and rain (supposedly) starting tomorrow.
