What's New at TimsLife.Com |
Happiness. A new page was added to this section on March 18, 2023. The entire section was updated and edited as well. I am currently working on page 6 for this section.
DXing. I updated thhe DX section in January and February of 2023. I am working on another update for March 2023. My goal is to listen to radio stations in every US state, Canadian province and all countries of the world. I am about 25% of the way there.
DXing. The hobby of listening to distant radio transmissions is called DXing. Tim started DXing in 1967. He picked it up again in 2010. In this section he shares some of the many colorful and informative QSL cards radio stations from around the world have sent to him.
Happiness. Pursuing happiness in the sense of Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Pope. Tim heads back east and paddles 80 miles down the Connecticut River before tragedy strikes.
The original 2005/2006 Branford Bike online catalog is back on the web and officially part of Tim's history. Browse the 250+ page catalog to read about what was hot for pro bike riders in 2005. All the original tech articles were preserved.
When Tim started to write articles for his blogging site, TimsLife.com, he created static pages coded in HTML. Gradually the pages were upgraded with new HTML code and are now being converted to static PHP. Php pages load faster, are easier to update, offer greater user interactivity and are search engine friendly. All the PHP coding is completed as of April 2nd, 2019.

Page 41 of the fire and rebuilding story continues with "Winter is Wonderful in Montana" in the winter of 2009/2010. I wrote this in February of 2013 and will do my best to add more pages before the warm spring weather lures me out of doors and holds me fast until the autumn snow storms.
I am still alive and doing well! Thank-you to all who emailed and asked when the next Tims Life pages were coming. Soon, just after I finish my taxes in early April.
Two years ago I started a new business. At first I built web sites but soon branched into selling books. The site address is www.BrockettDesigns.com. You can order books from myself or Amazon from my site. Use coupon code BD2012A and get 25% off anything I can ship from here. Sorry, Amazon does not accept my coupon codes. Business is brisk but snow still blankets the ground here in the high mountains of Montana. So I will have time to add a few new pages to Tims Life and bring everyone up to date. Thanks again for visiting.
