Default Two hours -- two days

Yesterday, the server install went very smoothly -- fishing time!!

Completed the day by heading downstream swinging caddis wets and
taking the odd dink and losing my second semi-decent fish of the day.
Oh well, it beat installing new servers.


Tell me about it.

hijack I arrived back from hurricane country yesterday after installing a
replacement server for a client that lost his entire store to Charley. It ripped
the roof off his building ( http://css.sbcma.com/timj/pics/roof.jpg ) and the
rain just poured in ( http://css.sbcma.com/timj/pics/front_desk.jpg ). This is a
full service equipment rental (hire) business. Imagine this store full of
electrical equipment and tools - all ruined beyond repair. In the front office
photo, you can see the cubby where the server used to reside, with the 16-port
multiplexor still attached to the cabinet. I had to install the server into a
temporary trailer while the store is rebuilt, which will take nine months to a
year./hijack

I'm glad you were able to get out. It would have been nice to have made it to
Penns for a spey casting lesson or two - it sounds like fun. I had my heart set
on fishing a little at the "secret spot" today, but the wind was really whipping
around. The next few days are supposed to be pretty nice with autumn-like
weather, so I hope to sneak out some afternoon.
