So it has been a little while since I have posted on the blog. Mostly because there hasn’t been to much to report or anything going on really. There was almost a possible sale of the Palmyra site but things just didn’t work. Instead the people ended up buying the Avoca site here in Nebraska and I think that it was a good deal for both the previous owner and the new ones. I have spend a few days the last couple of weekends and have been helping the new owners out when I can with some stuff. Not working for a few months can make you a lazy person and I am not afraid to say that. It is good though that I have been able to do something that has to do with this hobby of mine with missile silos and to be able to help others out. My first visit to the Avoca site the new owners had moved there trailer onto the site and had been living there for about 2 weeks and have been getting the kinks worked out. They have set up a solar panels to power there camper and last Saturday I help with the installation of a small wind turbine to help with the power when the sun isn’t out. It was a fun experience and am glad that I could help them out. I have also been trying to do a little update to the website as I have plenty of time to do stuff like that now. Although I didn’t make a lot of major changes I wanted to make it look a little different that it has been for the last couple of years. I have added some new photos of the Avoca site and a lot of links as well to some of my social sites that I hang out at. I have purchased a little mini HD cam that records 720p HD @30fps and have taken some video as well of the Avoca site and have been uploading it to my youtube account. It is a tedious process as anyone that does any work with video HD video takes up alot of space and a long time to upload. Just 9 minutes of video is around 600 megs. I know some of the videos may not be that exciting but hey its not like I am getting payed to do this stuff. I just hope that everyone enjoys it. My video cam is a Kodak Zi6 and after doing some long research on the internet I found that is was the best value for the money I spent. I can use rechargable batteries for it and it has a SDHC card slot for extra memory. It has its flaws but it is what I have been needing to take basic video of stuff that I am doing here or there with the Missile sites.
I thought about posting links here but all the links are on the web site so head over there and click on all the new stuff. I have also added a fan page for my web site on Facebook and the link is here if anyone wants to go there and sign up as a fan. http://companies.to/nebraskasilos/. I continue to get emails from people that say they love the Nesilos website and I want to say that I appreciate all the emails and comments that I have been getting. I hope to continue to bring new stuff as much as I can to the website and will try to post more on the blog. Thanks
