The Move to Southfield

(Click on any picture to see the full size.)

Shortly after the Florida trip, Marc took a job with AV Technology in Detroit. He is the computer network (LAN) manager. He is busily designing the computer and telephone system for AV's new building and revels in trouble-shooting computer-related problems all day long. Here is an example of one of the schematics he's been working on:

Since the commute to East Lansing would be too far, we sold the condominium there and now live at 26973 Farmbrook Villa Drive, Southfield, Michigan, 48034. It's a beautiful area -- convenient to everything and in the midst of trees: It's the ideal apartment for us now, with much more space than we had in East Lansing. Visitors are welcome as long as you give us enough notice for clean-up! We have an option to buy it as the complex is converted into condominums.

In our office, Marc has cleverly installed an ethernet hub so that the 2 desktop computers and the laptop are all linked together. The files on all computers can be shared. With the addition of a Newton personal digital assistant, 2 phone lines, a fax machine, 2 scanners, speakers, and a digital camera, the "nerd nest" has been transformed into a truly convenient communications/multimedia center. Who knows -- someday we may even get rid of all the moving boxes.
