This week we're recognizing archae86.

Archae86 regularly shares clear and thoughtful posts in the discussion forums, sometimes including a story from his firsthand experience to help illuminate a topic. For example, I really enjoyed his story of having phone calls back in the 1980s that bounced through two satellites to make the trip between California and Israel.

Thanks for sharing!

Perhaps you can post on a new book you're reading, a new hobby you're taking up or about random finds as you finally get around to cleaning out the..., or your most recent adventure?

Anything to keep your windmill alive.

Please keep comments polite.

Next week we (family) are going on first road trip after COVID. We will start our trip from Toronto and stop at Quebec City. Next we will go to Rimouski Quebec. Stay there couple of days and explore the area including visiting submarine museum. This time I am using my Garmin along with Waze in Carplay.
