Thursday February 7, 2008 5:15 am Lethbridge, Alberta

It is -5 C with a high forecast of +2 C. Sunrise 7:56 Sunset 17:35 Hours of daylight: 9:39

A. Morning Musings

The earlier estimate for Time machine completing all of the initial backup files was too high. It finished at 5 this morning.

There is a winter storm warning in effect for tomorrow. Our decision to drive to Edmonton today looks like a good one. Now to identify the books I will take with me:

The last book is another CBC Massey Lectures, this time for 2004. I bought a number of these books last year and it is time to begin reading them. The theme of this one is similar to the one I read a few days ago by Doris Lessing. I always like to have at least one non-fiction book with me. I am also going to take a book on Dreamweaver CS3 - this may be a good opportunity to learn a few new techniques.

However today will basically be a driving day.

Learning Category Planned Activities for Today Time
