Opened for the first time in Texas. It is some kind of warehouse scale that my deceased brother brought down from up North. It is in the estate sale. It was all boxed up sitting in an Estate shed.

We have clouds and temps just 94.
What else could we ask for. Oh yeah RAIN

Pleasant day.
Mowing done and I’m ready to proclaim Sophie’s pool as converted to salt water. Chlorinator appears to be working, but instructions say to allow a few days to adjust Cl production. Decided togo for a dip. Water does have a lightly salty taste but not bad. Pool itself felt really clean, vinyl not slippery. Temp was only 79°, a bit chillier than I like but comfortable after a minute. Followed up with a session in the hot tub. Kinda lazy afternoon. Do I enjoy a freshly drawn Porter before or after a nap?
I do want to research if I can improve water flow with just my solar pump to maintain adequate flow for chlorinator. Choices maybe add more solar or change out pump to larger. More investigation.

KJC, sounds like you scored a good wood source.

Depends on which connector. Smaller hole to go from in to out, but seemed a bit counter intuitive.

I had to go with th big one, because I put the dish on to of a 22’ mast…

when I relocate it onto the peak of the house I can go smaller, but relative to the cable Janet er it is still a big hole…

For a brief period of time, yes.

Ken, that whole control panel unscrews from the lower chamber and the element lifts out. Came with instructions and container for cleaning. The panel even has a cleaning indicator. Element should last about 8 years.
I also installed a Waterguru Sense 2 Automated Smart Pool Water Monitor | WaterGuru. Did test this afternoon and Cl level up from yesterday but so was ph. Learning curve. Like it better than test strips.

Since wife got bit by brown recluse spider we no longer burn wood sad. Said I would put wood stove in building on the hill never got around to it

Hope she recovered well. I remember how fast moving my resulting infection was requiring trip to ER who called in the orthopedic surgeon.
