Minivan Sound Sample

The incessant vibration from the Astro during the return trip from Winnipeg to Fernley, which was only present at freeway speeds, was very wearing and made the homeward-bound trip much less pleasant. Here's what it sounded like:

I had to take today off and sleep, getting more than twelve hours. It was not enough, but maybe a few days of sleep will let me recover. I spent something like five of six hours today entering receipts and reconciling expenses, a complicated matter made more complicated by being in two different currencies. Also, a fair number of the Canadian expenses haven't yet cleared my credit card account.

Something interesting train-related happened yesterday evening in the yard across the street from our house, and I do have photos, but the story will hae to wait until tomorrow.
