 🥘  in the 'boro rain 🌧️ 

and   🌧️.  and  🌧️

it rained real good 

Today was move stones and cement flagstone

I did a smidgen. 

Really. I heard  " not you, leave it !" I believe the big fear is having to return my body up the hill 

??????????

Ah, well, job done. We were prepping the outside apron of the shoreline for a delivery of material. And perhaps of major need, clearing the floor of the boathouse for a re - levelling of some sort but those stone flags had to go, at the very least.

We were walking on wet soil, mud and goop . The goop was concentrated in the middle of the floor and slightly more towards the river direction 

W / out the boathouse floor cleared, no real levelling could be complete

' boro is slightly overcast and setting  itself up for rain over days to come

The story : the CB 311 Chromebook that is usually the typing machine here at the window desk reaches its end of update life in 2 months. BUT the Chromebook Duet usually downstairs is going to be good til 2030 Jun. There is 2 yrs difference in the purchase dates but Duet qualified for the automatic 10 yr program.
Truth. The CB 311 can go on as an ' updated ' Chromebook minus ' Android '
however, this includes most Apps e.g. YouTube and gmail plus .........everything that we do here

Thus. I am trying the Duet as a daily typer in the window seat - outlook on the world outside.
Adjustments, the Duet is a Chromebook / tablet. Powerful in the sense of quickly utilising peripherals which is basically anything and  everything b / c there is only 1 Type C port. A dock for Type C and Type  B inputs and the HDMI for TV is needed.
The screen is 11 in and only 11. I use the TV even w / the CB 311
Then the keyboard is detachable [ hence the ' tablet ' mode ]
but the keys are closer and have reduced carry or shorter travel. That change is harder to adjust to

Of course, just go get another Chromebook in 2 months

We shall see said the Zen Master ....... again

So. How did exercise go, today. The Wahoo App that records and presents kCal / time / avg BPM / max BPM also asks ' how was your workout '

I answered once ' enjoyable '

But really the App wants daily input to track your workout history 

the challenge of Chromebooks. Officially, we both have used the Duet.Reviews are mostly negative. Screen is a tiny bit smaller and keyboard is a pain. Recall that many buyers specifically wanted the tablet function [ sans keyboard ]. I've tried tablet mode and while quirky really not my fav.

Early days and we may adjust if only out desperation
BTW, when using the Duet downstairs I have BluTooth standard ish keyboard. Up here, not sure how it would fit.
