We’ve had pretty smooth sailing here lately. Maybe after those two big lightning hits last fall, anything seems like smooth sailing. As a result, we’ve been able to press on with accomplishing some of our dreams here at Radio HRGS. I even managed to mow the yard, but it wasn’t quite dry enough to get [...]

I don’t think I’ll write much today. It’s our anniversary. We went to Gio’s for lunch. If you’re not familiar with them (and you probably are not, since they are local), they are arguably the most high falutin’ eatery on the island. We’ve eaten a couple times at their restaurant up in French Harbor. They [...]

Christmas came a little early for Peter and Sandi. They found their missing dog, Saydee. It is a bit of a long story and, if you remember, it was while looking for Saydee that the Silseths got their vehicle stuck for a week. So let’s just say it was quite a reunion. Of course, now [...]

You might be a real four wheeler if you have ever had 2 wheels off the ground and said “We’re in good shape.” You might be a real four wheeler if you have to get the wheel barrow to clean your driveway off after you wash your vehicle. You might be a really serious four wheeler [...]

We’ve been up to our necks in alligators for so long that it’s an incredible feeling to finally be draining the swamp a little bit. Last week we received the replacement LNB for our satellite dish. Not sure what that is? Watch the video and I’ll explain there. That was the last of our significant [...]

“Sometimes I think my life would make a great TV movie. It even has the part where they say, “Stand by. We are experiencing temporary difficulties.” ~Robert Brault We’ve certainly had our share of technical difficulties lately. Last week, on Friday afternoon, the FM went off the air. The link between the studios and the [...]

Going to church in a different culture is … well … different. The music is usually different. The order of worship is sometimes different, but often surprisingly similar. The “dress code” is almost certainly going to be different. The preaching is not what we are used to back home. None of those things make a [...]

If you read our previous post, you’ll know that we’ve been buried under an amazing pile of things to fix. The pile is still there, but it’s smaller than when we got back here from vacation about a week and a half ago. Now, if you want to get everything in chronological order, scroll on [...]

What with the water well issues, the termites, and even a parade, I haven’t given you much news lately on the ramifications of the lightning strike we suffered a few weeks ago. That’s largely because there wasn’t any news until the new radio and an identical spare arrived last Thursday. I spent a few days [...]

The termite project is succeeding! But it’s been slow due to a sunshine shortage so I invented a way to get the wood hot quicker. All it took was a small piece of plywood, some aluminum foil, a little tape, and something to lean the contraption against. I think that the reset of the desks [...]

First of all, thank you to everyone who has been praying for my medical situation. Whatever it was, it was not appendicitis, even though it hurt in exactly the right place. My guess is that the anti-spasmodic they gave me at the hospital did the trick. In a few minutes I’ll be taking my final [...]

Mildred and I had big, big plans for this week. Now we have the same big, big plans for next week. Why? Well, I’ll explain. Mildred needs to buy some medicines over on the mainland where they are not as expensive as on the island. I have an item to look for for the radio [...]
