A revised

update on our Amazon order is now Sunday. Which is great.

Folk fest weekend is underway underway. Our residence is about 2 blocks away off Connors Road.

It's been a steady staple in Edmonton but was suspended during Covid a few years ago but back in fine form. The Cary West festival is also happening this weekend. We had a nice day of rain, so its a good weekend of outdoor festivals.

Anne did a bottle run earlier and brought me back an A&W burger and fries, and a bucket of KFC. Having a good time today. Anyway, that's all for now.

My employer's tech contractor

went to work optimizing my work laptop. They do this once a month. For this we get a small stippend several times a year for monitoring the setup process. 

Anne and I made a combined Amazon order. I'm getting a lightning in USB A out to computer twin pack 6 foot cable. Also is a monitor iPhone/webcam holder. Hopefully this will work. I want to turn my iPhone into a webcam. Anne ordered a hand held electric fan. I like this because its magnetic, and the cell phone can slide right up to the edge of the monitor. The mount can even tilt over the monitor. Pretty cool huh? Anyway, that's all for now,

Sometime this afternoon we are

heading to Clareview Rec centre for advance polls. After that over to BP's.

My camera cage order was delivered just before noon yesterday. Works as advertised. I just need some better lighting. I'm looking at getting the Neewer twin pack 660 pro 2 video lights with C stands. It's priced at $365. Not bad.

Yesterday's pre-season Elks/Stampeders CFL game wasn't on TV. They had a half-hour delay of the game due to the AQI. Stamps won 29-24 bombers are in town Saturday. Anyway, that's all for now.

Anne didn't put up much of a fight

when I told her I bought 3 items from Amazon I bought a lens filter ($18) for my Sony camera. Also in that order was a Camera cage as well to protect the camera. The cage has 1/4" holes in it and a cold shoe. The cage will allow me to mount the camera to my Sony tripod in a vertical position to help prevent rolling shutter.  Apparently. Also in that order, I bought a blue tooth speaker for my iPad. The whole order cost me $135. It will be here on tomorrrow. 

It's been a very smoking week, other than Wednesday. Yesterday forest fire smoke got so thick a drone shot almost blanketed the image. AQI was @ 11 today. More of this over the next few days. Not a nice Victoria day long weekend.

Anne ordered us Royal Pizza for diner which was real nice. I've got a video I want to upload for today Going to try a picture in a picture. See how that turns out. Anyway, that's all for now.
