03 Anker PowerCore 10000 | Douglas E. Welch Holiday Gift Guide 2017

Since so many people order their gifts online and ahead of time, I’ve decided to start my annual Gift Guide fairly early this year. This should allow you to find your favorite gifts — and perhaps recommend a few of your own wish list items to your friends and family — with enough lead time to assure they arrive in time for your holiday celebration, whichever holiday it might be!

Anker PowerCore 10000

This is the external battery I have carried in my bag for almost 2 years now. I don’t think I have ever completely ran out of power unless sharing between my son and I when we are traveling together.

A tool I would not be without! — Douglas

Shared calendars are one part of an organized family

by Douglas E. Welch , techiq@welchwrite.com 206-338-5832 Reader/Listener Line As a parent with a school-age child, I often hear other parents bemoaning their disorganized existence.
