May 18, 2008 in General Family

I finally got around to doing some post processing on my pictures and added some up to the gallery.

Still trying to get docs to the close the house, the lenders are acting totally nutty and throwing everybody curves by pretty much randomly changing what has been a pretty set business process for a long time, and just demanding weird things. Anyway with a little luck we might actual close this next week. Course then Charise would like to wait until schools out to move but I’m not sure I can handle a month more of waiting.

Busy weekend, Saturday we had Richard (my Mom’s hubby’s) Birthday party up in SF. We went out to Yang Sing which is a very good (and insanely exspensive) Dim Sum place. Then the kids put on a play :) .

Garmin 920

Yeah so no pictures yet, been busy with house stuff.

I did get a new toy the other day off of craigslist on the cheap, factory sealed. The guy had a pretty good story as to why he had it, so I’m telling myself it didn’t just fall of the back of a truck (they got a couple at cost then didn’t need them etc, meh, maybe).
It wasn’t that much cheaper then Amazon actually (a bit) but I could get it first thing in the morning and I really needed it to go find some place in Los Altos (charise needed her hybrid with the integrated one), so I’m calling it a win.

I have some mixed feelings on the unit over all, but it dose seem to be fairly solid for point A to point B type stuff and that is always critical detail and surprisingly not all companies get that little detail right :p. So here is a brief man on the street feature/impression type review as I discovered them.

Note the page breaks on the full article page. I’ll see if I can get a picture of my UI from it.
