Thank you James. You are very kind. And you are all welcome to come visit and camp. But Craig, I'm afraid you'll be out of luck with that whole wireless thing. We've even gotten rid of our cell phones. They simply don't work here. If you want braodband here, it has to be via satellite.

Well Raghunathan, let me see. Since moving in I've wrangled with contractors to finish my mother's house that we had put in, I've restored power and phones to my outbuildings, I've re-roofed my electronics lab and put in an ESD safe (conductive epoxy) floor, I've done a contract design for an Air Force prototype circuit board and am about to do the board assembly, I've set up my CNC machine in the shop (though the shop is far from set up) and I still have to complete sandblasting, sealing and finishing out this basement so I can move my R&D lab equipment out of our living, dining and recreation rooms. Only then will I get to start working on my corral and pastures. Oh yes. I also got an LPKF circuit board plotter for the electronics lab, but I still haven't set up the plating line.

On the other hand, the Milky Way is really bright here, and I heard wild turkeys in my pecan orchard last evening. I've also seen deer and rabbit and geese and ducks. We will be eating much more variety than we did in Dallas.
