In October 2000 we sold our NZ house in preparation for moving to the US, and temporarily moved into a small apartment on Prince’s Wharf. We quite enjoyed the downtown lifestyle for those few months. (Our apartment didn’t have a water view, though; it was in the middle of two buildings). #ThrowbackThursday

(Since this is the first non-themed day on my blogs since Thanksgiving, here goes:) our Thanksgiving feast, with fancier tableware than usual, and plenty of tasty food. We’ll be eating the leftovers for a while yet.

On the Dejus YouTube channel: Ducks On Ice. The ducks sliding around on the frozen pond, inside their house, and swimming in the non-frozen water by the fountain pump. ❄️🦆❄️

On the Dejus YouTube channel: Ducks walking on and falling through ice. Our pond mostly froze today, and our ducks walked on the ice for the first time, with mixed success. ❄️ 🦆❄️

I pulled the trigger on the MacBook Pro 16” plus an assortment of dongles. I hope I don’t regret it!

Happy Thanksgiving! I’m thankful for lots of things, including my blog followers, customers, friends, and family. It’s still a Thursday, so here’s our turkey from 2015. #ThrowbackThursday 🦃

I feel my resistance breaking down... I am very tempted by the MacBook Pro 16”, and today my aging non-retina MacBook Air (2014) was starting to act flaky... and Jenn keeps saying I should buy the 16 for our big trip next year. I’m feeling a big purchase on Black Friday is increasingly likely. I use an iMac as my main machine, so don’t really need a powerful laptop most of the time… but it would be a nice upgrade for those times I do.
