Yesterday, my sister held a luau-themed get together. Partially for fun and partially to celebrate her 10th wedding anniversary.

I added some wheels to my new Line 6 Spider IV guitar amplifier. Now, it’ll be much easier to move the amp around. I ordered the casters (wheels)
The amplifier on its side, with the new wheels resting on top.
I had to eventually turn the amplifier over completely, in order to get the wheels attached.
Fast forward to the last wheel.
A short video of the amp being moved about on its new wheels.

Almost two weeks ago, I decided to upgrade from my old iPhone 3G to the new iPhone 4. Here’s a few photos of the new phone.

As a belated anniversary present to ourselves, Jen and I spent a couple days last week in Solvang, CA. We stayed at the Kronborg Inn, which turned out to be a pretty nice place.

Jen and I had lunch today at Muzio’s Grocery & Deli in downtown San Luis Obispo. This is the first time we’ve been to Muzio’s, and it didn’t even dawn on me until after we got home that the business we visited had recently moved. Muzio’s used to be on Monterey Street, but it is now located in the new Wineman building on Higuera Street. (We mistakenly believed it to be a brand new business.)
Muzio’s has a kind of rustic decor, with comfortable seating inside, as well as some patio dining tables out front. The deli lists its sandwich offerings on a series of blackboards behind the counter.

On Friday, Jen and I bused up to the North County for the 2010 California Mid State Fair. We mostly walked around and looked at the different exhibits that were on display.
These bears greet you at the main entrance to the fairgrounds.
The first building we walked through was a craft building that included handmade stuff as well as baked goods. I think this cake is pretty cool.

This one is pretty cool, too.

We went to a show last night here in San Luis. Our friend Erk gave us a tip that Australian band Tamarama would be in town. So, once again we found ourselves drawn to a concert based on the bill’s opening act. Which is too bad for us, as openers always have the shortest sets. Read the rest of this page »

We’ve been asked (and by asked, I mean told) by new owners here at the park to make some minor improvements to our home. One of the things we were asked (told) to do was to give the place a good cleaning around the outside. We did have a power washing done a couple years ago, but we hired someone to do that. This time, the management here loaned us their power washer. We hadn’t ever used a power washer before, so it was a learning experience.

Over the last few years, I’ve gone through several desk chairs. The first one came with me from Illinois. I think it got damaged while in storage, as it didn’t last long after we moved in to our current place. (The main post in the chair’s base actually bent itself into an angle. I took some photos and blogged about it on my old blog at the time. Unfortunately, none of that is still online.) When I replaced it, I bought a relatively cheap chair from Staples, and that chair was a pre-assembled floor model. That was good, because I didn’t have to put it together. But I think it had experienced its fair share of ware at the store before I brought it home. It too didn’t last long, as a couple of the wheel housings broke and couldn’t be repaired.

Yesterday, Jen and I went to the Central Coast Renaissance Faire. Here’s some pictures (and a short video).
