The Mothership has landed at Tranquility Cove. No, not the Tranquility
Cove on the moon but the one in South Carolina. We drove straight
through from Kitty Hawk to this location in seven hours last Saturday.
We have really tested the heating system of the Mothership because one
night it got down to 23 degrees and with the dual furnaces we were cozy
as can be. We are spending Christmas with Bob's mom and dad and
enjoying just kicking back and relaxing. Bob helped his dad activate
the second tuner on his Tivo yesterday. We ran a second coax feed from
his dish which already had a 4 output multiswitch on it. So, it was an
easy job and it is really nice having that second tuner running so he
can record one channel while watching another or record two different
channels at the same time.
