Even with the panels, though, the pimped-out Prius wouldn’t actually run on solar power (it’s still a gasoline-electric hybrid, yo); instead,...
Life round-up.
Friday: BBQ on roof amidst rain, too many fireworks, booze and food. Epic reunion with friends. Epic Rock Band session followed. Roof not cleaned.
Saturday: The Lodge provided the worst brunch experience I’ve ever had — 2 1/2 hours of wait time and I get cold tofu cubes that taste like old peppers. I hate peppers. I make my own and finish out the day with a nap and Wii. Roof not...
