Dennis with Youtube Tv, Prime, AppleTV, we don’t miss Dish in the least. And less downtime.

I have a 2nd receiver at dad’s for him to watch. Only reason I haven’t cancelled.
When I started Dish it was 19.99 a month. Now $113.99 a month and going up next month. I bought and own my equipment. My HD receiver stopped working a couple yrs ago. So I’m only paying for dad to watch ESPN, the weather channel, and News. He does get OTA 3 channels.

If your Dad has internet shouldn’t be a problem. My neighbor and his brother in Ca share a Youtube TV account. 3 devices can be logged in same time I believe.

good morning all
46 and clearing out, rain is done, 1.1 inches total, high of only 59 today

Mostly nice you can finally ride in cooler weather.
Don, good luck with rest of auction. That outboard motor hasn't been run in a while.
Being two stroke, might start right up.

have no plans for today, happy to conserve energy

I posted exactly when Ron did. Wow. I need to up my game and get better suet cakes.
Mine don't hold a candle to Ron's.

There is a twisted web of rules. For airlines and charter, for cabin altitudes above 10,000, you are correct, O2 is required. I was referring to aircraft certification requirements rather than operational requirements.
And those certification requirements only apply to large airplanes.
Our turbo props have a maximum altitude of 41,000 feet, but have a cabin altitude of 10,000 that high.

To further muddy the waters, pilots not flying for hire can go to 14,000 for a half hour without O2, and can stay below 12,500 as long as they want.

And the last piece of the web is that passengers can have a cabin altitude of 15,0000 feet if there is enough O2 available to supply 10% of them.
Flying airplanes is easy, knowing the rules is another story…………

Morning all!
44 going to 56. Partly cloudy today with rain in the forecast for the next few days.
We are supposed to be in peak colors this weekend. Around here most of it is already covering the ground. Need the wind and wet to die down so I can get out there.
laptop died on me Friday..new one coming from BJ’s on Monday. Under 300 with free shipping! I remember when you couldn’t get ram for that cheap!
Nothing planned for today yet. might be a rest day. Time will tell.
Hope everyone stays safe and healthy!

That is not a Suet Cake. It is a 2 lbs Seed Cake. Works good for the type feeder I am using. Menards has there own brand. Kaytee also makes them.

gourmet for sure
I already give them a ton of black oil sunflower seeds, recently consumption has gone down on my suet cakes.
maybe the blue jays are tired of rendered cows?

we have a really nice bird feeder/seed store not too far away.
I should ask them what works best locally.

my biggest problem with the birds is not my feed.
It's my neighbor's cat. Cat scares the birds away.
I need to go spray the area around the rv, where the cat likes to hide plus near the birdfeeders
with the peppermint oil spray I have
that has worked well in the past
interesting how such a natural ingredient repels both ants and cats
