We got a little of sprinkle of rain so far. Lots more on the way.

Theoretically it should work. Line clear and connected. Aux Pump filter clear, pump works, float switch works manually. I would need to drain the tank to test if the auxiliary fuel supply works. Fingers crossed it does. Connected to my 500g main supply. Would be nice not to have to fill by cans anymore, but in its new location I can reach with the pump nozzle as well.
Taking a break before next tadk

It would be great to see you on one of the judge shows, you could win I'm sure and it would be a lot more interesting than the endless dog or rent cases. Just don't get on the one where jerry is judge - can't stand a fake.

Am I the only one in Texas that thinks the call on first base last night was wrong? I am pulling for the Astros but he was right in the middle of the base when he crossed it. Am I missing something?
Trea Turner first base call - YouTube

I didn’t see the game, but based on my 16 years of coaching softball, I would call him out for running inside the base path.

Since I'm still torn between wanting the Astros or the Nats to win,

and since I don't want the baseball season to end...

how about a tie after 9 innings,

and then about 8,208 extra innings.

That should take us to 2/21/2020 when the Spring Training season games begin.

I don't think they have that much spit.

Astros up by 1, yeah.

He ran the same line as 100% of right handed batters. He stepped on the bag in the middle, like every other runner does. I don’t see how he could do it any different. It only became an issue because the throw to first was so far off towards home and the first baseman didn’t reach like he should have.

His left foot was on the grass each step.

His left foot was inside the line, you must run in the box or outside the line. If one foot is out, you are out. Just like football, if your toe is out of bounds, you are out of bounds. Bad throw becomes irrelevant if you’re out of the base path. Its a technicality, but it’s the rule.

Right, not in the marked path.

I got the BH off and the BB on in preparation for the snow coming tomorrow night.

I also got the wheel tracks in the driveway graded level again.

My usual monthly trip to North Bay tomorrow. I should be back before the snow starts flying.
