Good morning!!! (afternoon, actually).
73F @ 1:00PM. Sun and clouds mixed. High near 75F. Winds WNW at 5 to 10 mph.
Your trampoline looks like the one in the back yard here, Ken. Hope to recover a few bucks by selling it.
RNG do you have warranty for your newly discovered items
The seller of the home provided a home warranty, but it'll take a few days for the paperwork to catch up and I can tell what it covers.
There's a stack of instruction sheets and booklets for the appliances, garage door openers, and such, but precious few receipts. Very likely I'll be looking for nameplate information and contacting manufacturers with serial numbers to see if there is any warranty left. The sticker on the hot tub revealed the serial number and a manufacturing date in '06, so I already know I'm SOL for warranty coverage if anything turns out to be broken on it.
RNG, I hope you have a good road to egress away from a wildfire. One that preferably goes into the prevailing winds.
Prevailing winds come out of the west, but this place has access to 4 lane roads within a mile or so heading in all compass directions. US101 is the main freeway, running north and south, closest entrance maybe a mile and a half away. CA1 is about the same distance away, also running north/south. All these roads would quickly jam in an emergency as 110,000 people tried to get away. A fair number of two lane roads wind out through the canyons, and they might have a better chance of staying open. But with apps like Waze and google maps, there aren't many secrets left. The joys of urban living.
Visited a couple nearby parks to sus out the dog friendliness of them yesterday. One was just a few acres, but no leash requirements and pretty close to the house. The other one was huge, has a couple of no-leash areas, but allows dogs everywhere if they are leashed. Lots of people enjoying the grass and shade, lots of built in BBQs, and no problems finding a parking space. We'll be back to both of 'em.
The park was pretty close to the airport, and while we were there a pair of fighter jets circled and landed. Near as I can tell, they're F18s, but no clue where they're stationed. Neighbors say they don't hear jets very often, but I've heard two today, so maybe things are changing? Oops, there's another one...
Also hit the dollar store for some inexpensive household items like hand soap, mop, broom, dust pan, and such. Finished the day with steak on the BBQ and a couple beers, and a really bad movie. Didn't have any trouble sleeping through half of it.
Hope everyone's week gets off to a great start!
