I pulled an allnighter Saturday fighting with computer systems for myself, but, glad at the results š¤·āāļø
Relaxing and weather was amazing
Oh, thatās awesome, glad to hear š
what about you? any camping plans?
Hopefully everyone is having a good week
Itās hard to make any right now, weather keeps oscillating between winter and spring. Nearest open place is like 150kms, and donāt know to bring my winter pack and backcountry skis or my three season setup š
. I might be taking my first spring camping trip in mid May when the lock system opens up again.
Thereās also a campground halfway between here and some crown land . Last year I had meant to check it out as a potential halfway point to recharge my bike batteries with solar. I want to get used to that trip before I attempt travelling directly to the crown land (essentially general use crown land is free to camp on), now Iām kind of in limbo
Also am going to get starlink this year (until one of the coming alternatives is ready). Also want to try working from camp; it would let me stay out longer and not have to take vacation.
I need to look into starlink too, the campsite we went to was great but no service at ll
Iāll let you know how it goes, it *seems* pretty straight forward, donāt know when Iām going to sign on.
I hope everybodyās having a wonderful weekend
Weekend wasnāt bad. Got stuff done; seems all my weekends involved doing things I didnāt have time for during the week š¤£
Also, pulled the trigger on a gps watch. Been relying on my phone with a samsung tablet as back for gps while bikepacking, now gonna try and go with watch and phone as backup so I can swap tablet for a lightweight laptop. Weāll see how that goes.
a garmin one? keep me updated to see how you like it. I wanted to go to this huge camping store but the weather has been annoying
So, I got the Forerunner 955, I agonised over this vs the Coros Apex 2 Pro, but the Garmin was on sale and despite having less battery life, most reviewers seemed to like using the garmin more. So for so good, about to go for a walk so will see how well the gps works (my primary purpose for it)
The ios app and the macosx āexpressā app are a bit fidgety, also thereās a small learning curve to using it. So far Iāve just set it up and updated the software (but not the maps), put a bit of music on it and am listening to some music over bluetooth. Will take a long time I think to get a sense for it.
I know the feeling š, weather here has been spring one day, winter storm the next, back and forth
i need some consistent weather
Lawl, then def donāt come to Ottawa š
it was horrible, took forever to get home
Iām sure it looks beautiful when not driving
theres one point I couldnt see
But I would hate to be driving it. I havenāt done that in decades!
hows you? spring break yet?
One already went back to school. The other is on vacay with her dad.
im having a quiet work week at home š
I have a trip scheduled with them in the summer so Iām saving monies until then.
I do have a niece visiting soon so just a few local vacation days
Honestly traveling anywhere with all this stupid government stuff isnāt ideal
I worry about not getting back home but also donāt want to be home lol
Lazy, you help me not feel so weird; am worried if I have to travel to the US I will disappear forever
