Thanks, Marty. We spent most of last summer in our motorhome (great way to socially distance) in the Black Hills. We shot in the "Art Alley" in Rapid City, South Dakota; the light was perfect when I went to check it out, and told Joan, "Now - we've got about an hour of this good light!" My...

Something lighter... Last September, well before anyone knew if or when vaccines may be approved, my music partner and I did this video... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsvU6Pirvi8

That app needs to get external GPS from somewhere. Yes, it will pull GPS data from your phone... so you get to use two devices to do what one will do if you have a cellular capable iPad. Take your iPad out on its own with that app (leave your phone home) and see if you get GPS navigation. Not...

And, in Texas, literally 3 days before the start of the biggest spring break week, our Governor has "opened up Texas 100%." Too soon (my opinion). I am a big supporter of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Unfortunately, this move undercuts what our county was trying to do with making...

That works fine if you just want internet access on your non-cellular capable iPad. However, that still won't make the iPad functional as a marine nav device. It has been stated a couple times in this thread, but let me emphasize: to use the iPad as a nav device, it needs to have the GPS chip...

Our experience has been similar to gulfcoast John's: using Verizon, coast to coast, traveling by boat and RV. Pacific Northwest to the Florida Keys, southern California to Maine. Everywhere in between. We use my phone as a hot spot when traveling. 3mbps is generally enough to do what we want...

Instead of lighting up the Bat-signal, maybe we need the "snooze alarm." :wink:

So sorry for what you have to deal with, Bob and Marie. Our hearts hurt for you. I wish I had some words to ease the loss. These furry family members give us so much and depend on us for their care and welfare. There is no doubt that you gave Angel a wonderful life. You are right that one...

Congratulations, Dan and Janet - exciting times ahead! I'd suggest you start a new thread with your trip to retrieve the boat, so your posts don't get lost in this 18 page thread. Glad to hear you found the boat that will work for you and look forward to hearing about how you use it. Welcome...

Each of the 254 counties in Texas determines its own vaccination protocols. Our county now uses vouchers (at first it was first-come first-served). The next county over uses wristbands. Friends of ours here drove two counties over and actually got an appointment and had less than a half hour...

I get that, Marty. Until vaccinations are available on a more widespread basis here, I think Texas will continue doing it the way they are now. There was a big backlash when the first vaccines were made available on a first-come first-served basis, with no public info released on...

Yep; you have to show ID to get a voucher (in person)’ which allows you to get in line another day to get the vaccine. We are currently parked in one of the many lines at the fairgrounds, waiting for our turn for the second vaccine. We were in line six hours for the first shot; expect this to...

My wife made a Sunbrella storage bag that we could strap to the radar arch on the rare occasion we didn't have the full camperback up. When we stored the boat, that bag/contents would go inside the boat. Like you, we put no longer used blankets/beach towels between the eisenglass panels when...

Congratulations! That is exciting! And, at 31, it puts you in the youngish range of C-Dory owners. It is good to see young blood coming into the ranks of C-Dory ownership. Apparently, it took some of us much longer to get as smart as you are at 31. The adventure of heading to Florida to...

We will get in the conga line for our second shots (Moderna) on Friday; looking forward to "moving on." Our neighbors got theirs last week; she has had no issues, he ran a fever of 101º and had muscle aches for a day and a half. We are actually starting to make plans. Prior to getting the...

Looks good, Bud! Helpful hint: keep your fingers out of the router. :wink:

So sorry to hear this, Larry. Our condolences to you. R.I.P. Nancy. Jim & Joan

I think the trailer tire of choice right now is the Goodyear Endurance. This model Goodyear is made in the US. We had a blow out with previous Goodyear Marathons and the road service guy told me that was pretty common with that brand. The tread showed little wear, but the tire came apart from...

Rather that speculate low-ball pricing, it would be best to contact Dr. Bob to discuss it. In my totally unbiased opinion, this has to be the best equipped, most meticulously maintained CD-25 on the planet. I know Ray (the guy who did the upgrades before selling it to Dr. Bob) and I was beyond...

First post on the thread. Although, in my mind, the "no politics" decision has come from some people not being able to "just be nice" when they discuss politics. Their house; they get to make or change the rules. Seems to me that is should be easy to be respectful of our friends' house rules.
