More June pictures

June has been a busy month here on the Triangle Ranch.

Laura came to visit us for a week as she is in a career transition stage. We are also enjoying a long visit by Ryan and Kelly Gentry and Eve is also spending many days and nights with us. We are getting good use of the pool. We have also had all the yard sale bikes on the road with no mishaps – so far. The Gentry parents will come and fetch their kids this weekend.

Bob and Sergio spent several days painting and fixing up two of our rental units on the west side of Phoenix. One apartment was in very good shape and the other needed a complete renovation. We have another unit schedule to become vacant as of 1 July so we are hoping Craig’s List attracts us some good tenants.

On 22 June, Bob was attempting to add some voice over to a long video on his Mac Laptop and it froze up. It is now in repair and apparently no data was lost. The Apple Store refused to honor its warrantee because the previous owner had dropped the laptop and dented the corner. Bob tried to argue that the computer worked fine for six months so the dent was not the problem but – rules is rules- and Apple’s rule is if the case is damaged the warrantee is void.

We had a chance to participate in canning spaghetti sauce at the church cannery. We put up approximately 7,500 quarts in a four hour shift. Bob put the empty bottles from the pallets on to the conveyer belt. Rose did quality control.

We were able to have our first youth fireside at our home on 28 June. We had enough chairs for everyone to sit. Bob tried to make a slideshow using Rose’s PC but it did not turn out as well as the slideshows he has made on the Mac. Most of the problems were caused by operator input error as the old Fortran message use to say.
