Good morning!!!!

Ron, are those lanterns rechargeable? The Walmart description gives little information that I see?

I found these on Amazon. Same one? No clue.

Vont 2 Pack LED Camping Lantern, Super Bright Portable Lanterns, Must Have During Hurricanes, Emergencies, Storms, Outages, Original Patented Collapsible Camping Lights/Lamp (Includes Batteries) Robot Check

Not rechargeable. I use rechargeable batteries in the 2 I have. A charge last about 6 hours. Maybe more.

made an appt for rv to get oil changed at 2300 miles, at local european car place. They didn't mind doing it outside if need be. No one has a door it will fit under.
This is just the break in oil, which they say of course doesn't need to be done until 10k miles, but I'm old school and I want all the metal out of there. MB only allows one specific version of Mobil 1, I think 11 or 12 quarts. Plus a cartridge filter which always gets me slimed, glad he is doing it. It's really not hard to do, rv sits up enough you can get in there.

Drew,
I guessing that it's the Mobile 1 ESP quite likely in 5W-30,
it was a bit difficult to find for a while that was the same oil that RAM spec'ed
for the 3.0L eco-diesel for a couple of years,
they then dropped that in favor of Shell Rotella T6 in 5w-40.

The temperature was stuck on a drizzly rain showery 34ｺF all night; 35ｺF presently with similar conditions; and I anticipate this weather to continue with little change this PM with little change in the temperature. A good day to get my hairs cut while Wifey does the grocery shopping. We do not 菟lay well together grocery shopping.

套 Fortunately, that major ice storm didn't actually happen! ? Roy. The hype for conditions around here was short lived.

RNG & David- Thanks for sharing your multiple source power systems integration projects.

Eric- Good luck with the manufacture and installation of your tank cover.

Billy- Good luck starting your wood splitter.

Drew- Good luck with your eating across the USA logistical planning. When Wifey and I ate our way across Canada and during our eating our way down the USA coast trips we did it on the fly with the help of the locals input and internet searches. Thank you for the book reference.

Thomas- Good luck find Mama Moose and calf.

I hope that everyone has a decent day.

My + thoughts and prayers.

32°F and light fog this morning, going up to 60° today.

Got a whole lot of nothing done last night. I got home from work late, ate a small dinner, and The Wife suggested we sit down and finally watch the movie John Wick 3. I've been looking forward to this, as I thoroughly enjoyed the first two. This one ... I was a bit disappointed. They dragged out the fight scenes entirely too long, then left it hanging at the end, an obvious setup for installment #4 I guess.

That's a good-looking instrument, RNG. I hope they find it a new home. I am amused at the notion that it was just fine right where it sits for the last 30 years, but suddenly it's a safety hazard. Having worked in the pipe organ industry, I am fairly certain that there is more to this story that is not being publicly discussed.

New system is looking good so far, David.

Good morning to all! Low of 40 last night and light rain overnight....rain, glorious rain! Forecast has off and on showers today, possibly changing to snow overnight tonight. North of here up high in the mountains could get up to 2 ft of snow.

This weather is a welcome relief, giving me a break from helping with the son's project.... It's been kicking my butt. I can't let him know that or else it will get dragged on for months.

Today will involve doing a bunch of errands that have been put off for the last week.

Having internet problems again....or so I thought... It's really my IPad. It's a 2nd gen mini, hasn't been supported with any OS updates for about 2 years. It doesn't like to interact with most of the servers or programs anymore. Very frustrating to say the least. I'll type something, the lag takes 3-4-5 seconds to "catch up", then will cause a "reload" of the site. Then I have to "refresh", "restore" what I have been typing, only to find half of it gone!

Being it has taken me over 20 minutes just to get this posted, I'm cutting it short.... I know what I want for Christmas for sure! (Maybe an early present)......

Everyone have a great "hump day"! Prayers sent for all as usual.

30F this morning, heavy frost on grass.. Grand daughter is usually up by 6am, she slept in this morning until 7:30. She is recovering from the cold/congestion/double ear infection and needed the extra sleep.. I hear her singing in the other room, happy as can be. Nana takes her to school bus stop around 8:30 so she doesn't have as much time as she usually does, but is getting ready happy. I'm enjoying being Papa.

Stay safe, prayers for those in need.

Hawkeye, have fun with your granddaughter.
Lou, you are exactly right, Mobil 1 ESP
Ted, enjoy the rain, must be nice change
Jay, that's the book.

70°f and 1.4 inches rain, a wet night.

Honda 7000 running like a champ. It will make my coffee this morning. Then back out to the tractorshed. I’ll get some clean up and reorganize a bit before the crew arrives.

Very pleased how well put together these units are. Choosing the factory prewired was a good decision.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Doctors appointment this afternoon, yearly exam. Not my favorite but had to be done. I might not have time to do much today depending on how long that takes.
