And then there was the 89-95 recession, no work except for helping my client frame a remodel I drew for him. I did learn how to play bridge since there was no work. And then the 2008-2013 recession, that was not too bad. Which leads us to the possible 2020 recession. I say it will be over soon. That guy in the big house will turn this around and get us to our retirement years........ and then we will jump in a plane and visit the Great Glenn Woodward in Australia. Or maybe take a cruise up to Alaska and visit The Alaskan Son. But if the guy in the big house does not turn this around, I will jump in the car and visit Perry in Corona California, a mere 90 minute drive. Hope the economy goes up then on your return cruise from alaska you can swing by down here in Panama after you go through the panama canal...

Well, we did Panama back in 2009...... before they did the small addition, it certainly deserves a return trip! Speaking of trips, we just returned from Kenya in February before the sh*t hit the fan. We got lucky with that one. Baraca the Black Rhino and I became friends.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we supposed to believe that those 2 strands (of what is that, twine) are going to stop a charging rhino? Yikes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the idea is that the little zapping sound will give a person that little extra reminder that maybe... just maybe, it's time to RUN!!!

dshall Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Truth be known, that is a black rhino which is much more dangerous than a white rhino, but unlucky for him and lucky for me, Baraca is blind. He sleeps 24 hours a day except for when someone has paid $30.00 to pet him. The trainer tempts him with a little food, he stands up which gives the tourist a chance to have their picture taken with him. We visited many sanctuaries that take care of the animals who would not stand a chance in the wild. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Scott, That is one of the things I have decided to do during the current self isolation. I did read some preliminary stuff and got lost pretty quickly!

Best way to. learn is to learn with others players, preferably through a bridge club. Check out the Peninsula Bridge Club. https://peninsulabridgeclub.org.au. It l looks like they have online games. You could join the novice game and learn with other beginners. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our next cruise is planned for Summer of 2022 to Iceland & Norway. That is the year Lynn retires and that is where she wants to go. Hopefully all will be well then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted April 18, 2020 Author Share Posted April 18, 2020 Not to derail the world travels and cruises stories... I thoroughly enjoyed them! Just wanted to let everyone know my friend got back to me and does have Chief Architect but its an older version. The plans were created in Autocad completely so Im not sure how this adventure from Autocad plans to Chief is going to be but worth the learning I suppose. Just wanted to get back with everyone on this. I just wish the plans were done on an earlier chief version at least that would have been useful. Oh well off I go on this cad adventure next week.

Just because it was drawn in AutoCAD doesn't mean there's not a ton of totally usable 3D information. Unlikley? Perhaps...but totally possible.

Designer1 Posted April 19, 2020 Author Share Posted April 19, 2020 Great thanks Michael... I will check it out when he sends me the files next week. This will be my first Autocad to Chief transition so well see how that goes. Next... Ive got to convince him to dump autocad and update his Chief license so we can keep any future projects more simple...haha j/k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
