• Date: 2023 March and Early-April

 

Preparing the short term rental.  I am renting this unit in Stadium Village in Athens as a joint venture with Joe.  In this picture from March 1, 2023, the furniture is coming along.

 

Thursday, March 2, 2023.  My work area at Sandy Creek Park.  I have the computer, an FM radio, and my phones.  This is a fantastic work spot.

 

Installing Windows Server 2022 in an old computer in the shed.

 

A bunch of audio CDs that I bought from a liquidation store in Jefferson, GA on Saturday, March 4, 2023

 

My new Router - A UniFi EdgeRouter X SFP.  After I passed the Comptia Network+ exam, I needed to practice routing, so I purchased this one to replace my consumer-grade router.  Wi-Fi is provided using UniFi access points.

 

Donating my old dresser to The Atlanta Mission Store (Potter's House Thrift Store) on Jefferson Road.

 

The router and cable modem at the short term rental.  Wi-Fi 6 with 100mbps download speed.

 

Millie, Haocheng, and Paul on Wednesday, March 8, 2023.

 

An old Android Tablet in my shed cannot charge since it's too cold outside.

 

Several cables running to the television at the short term rental are concealed in a wire loom.

 

The ultimate location for the modem, Wi-Fi 6 router, and computer are tucked away in a television stand.  I connected this television to the Internet with a cable so that the wireless bandwidth would be preserved as much as possible.  It's probably only an academic improvement, but every bit helps.

Replacing the LED lights in the studio room at my house on Tuesday morning, March 21, 2023.

 

Verifying that my Icom IC-V8000 works 100% correctly before giving it to my friend Jeff.

 

Preparing for my backpacking trip on Wednesday, March 22, 2023.  This trip was Beech Creek Trail to Scaly Mountain.

 

This is how an OCD person (me) shops for laundry detergent.  It will proably be at least a year or two before I need to shop again for this product.  Saturday, March 25, 2023

 

Using this monitor donated from my friend Ron as a secondary monitor on the shed computer.  In this photo I am watching a scene from the movie Office Space (1999).

Macaroni and Cheese that I contributed to Joe's And Joey's dinner on Sunday, April 2, 2023.

 

Millie in the shed.  The heater was needed.  It was a cold and rainy Saturday at 2:45pm on April 8, 2023.

 

A random macro-lens shot of the right speaker on a table under the covered patio.  I was testing the camera for the following bird photo.
