Still the Best #1WC Watch, but I'm letting it down...

As I sit here to the squeaking and popping sounds that my house is making as the crew makes the final adjustments to the foundation, I am sad to say t...

Thoughts on the DW-H5600 ?

I was pretty excited that this did heart rate and a few other functions, while still being a normal looking 5600 case. But then I saw some of the reviews, and have hesitated on the purchase since. I k...

Thanks for thinking of me, really appreciate the thought!

I actually found a watch a few days ago, that made me think about something I wanted to reach out to you about clear back in the early summer and kept getting sidetracked. I'll do that when I get back home.

So far the house is still a bit of a construction zone. But the foundation is fixed and a roof is going on very soon.

Its been a long process, and it's taking longer than I expected, the companies in our area for this type of work seem swamped this year, it's been hard to get on schedules. But progress is happening, just slowly.

I just logged back in for the first time in months, (long hiatus, hopefully back regularly, but probably not all day like before.) and I see this, would love to attend! My schedule has become crazy, but I'll try my best to be there!

Thank you!

You were also a great competitor! Good luck with the rest of the game!

As for the Dutton reference, I wish I was half that hardcore... I live a much more boring life. (I've actually not seen Yellowstone yet, but I get the reference. Just don't have much time for tv these days.)

Not quitting WC, just the crazy competition that is the #1wc

I'll bet that is an interesting career, sounds like you know exactly what I was talking about. We had decided that Jack pile or what was just called Driven Pile around here was deemed to be the best option. There were others available, but this was deemed most cost effective, longest lasting, and least amount of time involved. They should be done soon.

I was in Cardiff exactly one year ago today. We spent two weeks in June touring south Wales, and the other areas around the south/ west of London. Beautiful areas.

Thank you. Good luck on the rest of the comp. CWC's are pretty awesome, and as I predicted it outlasted me... I couldn't quite hack it anymore. Lol

Yeah, it's a pretty amazing system they are using, 13 piers about 3.5inch diameter, driven down to about 26-28 feet deep, until they hit a stratum layer that holds the weight and they can't drive it down further. I literally watched the house raise back up, it's crazy!

It's getting better slowly!
