More experiments with my new coffee grinder. The first time I tried the top setting for how fine to grind the coffee and the result was too fine. So I tried a middle setting next, and it was still too fine. So I put it on the lowest setting this time, and it came out coarser than I was aiming for. That's good, because I was worried that the grinder might not be able to grind coffee that wasn't too fine, now I know it can, I just need to find the right setting.
And the experiment continues.....
I'm glad I bought a burr grinder instead of a blade type grinder. It really does make a difference, and the price wasn't that much more. We'll have to see if this grinder lasts as long as a blade grinder.

I'm debating buying a jetboat for the upcoming summer.
The weather currently sucks, however.

Seems like now would be the time to buy it - the price will go up when the demand does.

When you get everything sorted, I’ll let you take me for a ride. Failing that, we can go out on the boat.

If you're going on a boat don't you need to be the pirate?
