So my cute little neighbor comes over to borrow a cup of sugar. Seems like this is a twice a day thing. Hmmmm. Might have to think about that one.But she does make some great cookies. Not internet ones but real good ones out of the oven.

But never mind, she just was sitting in the living room and looking around. She's used to a Harley, the T-Bird top and all sorts of things but this one caught her off guard.

Laurie "What is that?"

Deral "Just some GPS stuff for some science experiments"

Laurie "Is it dangerous?"

Deral "Only if you reach for it when set up. It could cause lead poisoning"

Laurie (with a cautious eye). "So I should leave it alone with all those lights blinking at night out on your front lawn?"

Deral "Yes, probably so."

Love my neighbors.

No doubt. I've seen enough pictures of GPS gear to last a lifetime. Show us the goods!

No. I kept dropping the camera. She had been working in the front yard with her bikini. Forgive me.

Being set up so close to the wine rack, don't you have a problem with multipath?

Not so much multipath but geoids always are tough to resolve when you have a cutie that is asking the questions. And when she asks" Is that an ellipsoid in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?" Tough to answer that one correctly.

Not sure even Star*Net can handle those answers.

“So my cute little neighbor comes over”

Yeah, like The Pseudo Ranger says where’s the pics? We don’t wanna see any pictures of your living room, with all that surveying junk and golf clubs, just the “cute little neighbor”! 😉

Have a great Sunday!

Deral...I just gotta ask...

When I had my Mercedes the top was stored out in my office/living room.

So....how were the cookies?

Yes the walls are painted that way. But live they are not so vibrant and I did my house based on a color scheme from an 1800's styled historic home. It's actually very bright and accentuates the entire structure. The wine rack is a later addition and the golf clubs are just where I put them down this morning.

Sheesh. I put this under surveying. And now everyone wants shots of my friend?

LOL

JAVAD GPS equipment?

Kewl, but you can use that tripod to setup a camera so you won't drop it!

I wonder if she ever asked Deral to come over to her house and fix her plumbing?

Before I reread your post Deral I was wondering what the topper was.... A fancy ski lift chair....A ride-able sub woofer...

Yeah,

There's probably some gravitational anomalies around that time, too.
