Are we there yet

I'm not going to say I don't trust the links without addresses yet, but there's the full address linked to where it goes. You can also try these underlined words. They worked when I published.

I think it may be time to start into the blogs and start fixing links there. That's going to take some time. I have plenty, especially when the sun is providing days warmer that my current body's insides. Even being within a couple degrees isn't comfortable. Especially when compared to my basement. It's a bit on the cooler side, but it is much easier to warm up.

I decided to take a two month vacation in the vein of paternity leave. I have quite a bit of that time remaining, but the first part has gone by way to fast. Maybe I need more months. Or years.

That may answer your curiosity as to the timing of this post. But, it also answers why it's later than anticipated. There are spurts of time I don't see, but that is to be expected. To be sure, you will know when I don't anticipate additional updates. But, there are two more stories to tell after my own is finished. Granted, I know less about them, so they may be shorter overall. Or not.

For now, I'm charging batteries for my radio control car hobby. Thirteen runs every Sunday. But an additional fun run here and there.

This year, I decided to enter a contest for top speed. Using a car that was first sold over forty years ago, but has been available ever since. The suspension isn't much to write about, aside from how bad it is, even for its day.

In pure stock form, the host of the speed run managed twenty miles per hour. My goal is triple that. I think I will easily pass that goal, as my first trial was over fifty miles per hour....at about one-third of full throttle. That isn't to say I'm going to surpass one hundred, but definitely match my goal.

It's allowed to modify these cars with anything you can buy at a hobby shop. But, I'm only adding a wing to the front. A very light two wheel drive buggy has some issue picking up the front wheels for some reason. That was why I stopped at fifty miles per hour, or maybe a little slower. I tried to accelerate but the wheels came up with the throttle.

We'll see how Sunday goes. For now, I'm going to throw a link to an outside source that may or may not exist by the time you read this. Click at your own discretion.
