On the Sinclair Trails blog: with a self-contained RV, we didn’t notice a power outage in the area! 🚌
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 30 is “red”. Jenn’s favorite video game on her PS5 is Red Dead Redemption II, as seen here on our coach TV. 🚌📺🕹📷 #mboct
On the Sinclair Trails blog: after a week hiatus, I’m resuming posts, starting with one on our new tire pressure monitoring system. 🚌
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 17 is “compass”. The GPS in our motorhome includes a compass direction indicator. 🚌📷 #mboct
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 16 is “rotation”. Our coach includes a washer and dryer, which is convenient… though during the spin cycle, the rotation of the washer makes the whole coach shake. 🚌📷 #mboct
The Micro.blog October photo challenge word for day 1 is “touch”. Our 2017 Tiffin Allegro Bus 40SP coach includes a touch panel for many functions. Newer models have better ones, in more places, but this is still very handy. 🚌📷 #mboct
Since some people asked, our estate sale is scheduled for September 9-12. The old Macs I’m selling include:
- Original iMac G3 (powers on, drive doesn’t mount).
- Graphite iBook G3 (power supply dead).
- 2005 Mac mini G4 (powers on, I couldn’t get it to display anything).
- PowerMac G5 (works).
- Old-school clear plastic Apple Cinema Display and Apple Cinema Display HD (works with G5), and aluminum Cinema Display HD.
- 2006 MacBook Pro (works on power supply only).
- 2008 MacBook Pro (works).
- Two mid-2011 iMacs (works).
- 2013 MacBook Air (works).
- 2017 iMac Retina 5K, 27-inch (works).
- About 10 hard drives of various sizes.
- A bunch of spare keyboards etc.
- I also have a bunch of ancient iPods, iPhones, iPads, and Palm devices, and various other stuff.
They will be included in the estate sale in September. Put it on your calendar if interested in them, or our other stuff. It’s going to be a huge event! Sorry, no advance sales.
(Everything in that picture will be for sale, other than the contents of the two plastic bins on the floor.)
As part of preparing for our estate sale, I’m wiping my many old Macs and hard drives, all of which will be sold. Here’s my old PowerMac G5, running Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger. (If anyone in the Portland region wants some old Macs, plan to come to the sale!) 🖥
Health update: I’m feeling much better now. Still a cough persisting, as these things do, but otherwise fine. Jenn is feeling unwell too, but also improving. We both did at-home COVID tests today, just in case, but both were negative. So just the normal bugs. 🦠
