Hello and welcome to my website!

My name is Bob Robertson and I'm very happy to have you here.

I decided to start this little website pretty recently. With COVID-19 running rampant I find myself with a lot more free time than I used to have. My grandkids can't visit as much as they used to, and this gave me something new to try to help fill the time. I will admit that I needed some help getting started. I'm not very good with this web stuff, so my son and grandson have both been virtually helping me. My grandson, Kevin, is pretty good at this sort of thing and it has been fun working with him on this project. Did you know he can take control of my computer even though he lives 20 miles away? I just sit and watch the cursor move by itself while he works on it while talking to him on my phone.

I'm looking forward to adding a lot of pages to this website about solar power and other forms of renewable energy. I've always been one to encourage the people around me to be conscious of their impact on the environment and how things are powered has always been very interesting to me. I hope this website helps other people learn more about the energy possibilities that are now available to us. We've come such a long way and there is still more to come.

This page will be where you can come to see what is new on the website. Check back often. Being retired I have a lot of time on my hands.
