Good morning!!!!

[buckeyefarmer]

Week ago I noticed the input coax cable to my weboost LTE amplifier was laying on the floor. All lights were green like it was working. The connector had broke off at the circuit board edge. My fault for no strain relief. Tonight I attempted to solder it. Had to put a drop of solder for inner pin, then while solder soft push connector on the board, then solder outside to hold it.
Will test it tomorrow.

Don, how will it work at the sale if items don't sell? Are the prices set in stone? Can you pre-sell? I've got so much going on right now, I don't know if I'll have time or budget to get much.

If items don't sell they are put on a online auction like eBay, but her site.
Prices are not set in stone on the last day the prices are half price except the items we put "firm" price on.
We can pre sale but that defeats the purpose of them working for us. Today had 4 calls from friends/relative that wanted certain items and I just had to tell them be there early the first day. I'm not driving 3 hours for a $20 item, they will have to come to the sale. If we decide to keep an item we can take it out of the sale at any time just let them know so they can take it off of the online pics. People who get there very early the first day expect all online items to be there, especially if they drive a great distance.

Had to stay up till the last rain drop fell since it's such a rare occurrence. Total for the day .22" the most rain we have had this Summer!

Will they deliver the mail if/when you cannot drive?

I'm asking because I saw how my mother's age affected her ability to get the mail. It went from down the drive, to in the yard, to by the front door, and even then it was too far.

Not likely. We don’t get any sort of delivery. Ours is a very small, contract PO. Fortunate to have this close. I suspect in case like you asked the person would give their key to a trusted friend.

Good Evening Thomas,
Yeah I know, but this is actually legit, even lists the agency that cared for my mother, so pretty sure its all above board. Anyways the state of Ct now has the money, I just need to prove to them I am the rightful surviving owner !

David,
I would think that surf would prove challenging for rubber boat training ! It was tricky getting out, and actually I had to time it perfectly to get in, but managed not to get crushed by a huge wave !

LOL, very challenging. No cocky students after 1st attempt. As I recall, we could shift the launch area a bit to the right and greatly increase success. Some classes had members from Marine Recon, even more fun. Always a tiring, but fun day. Our alternate training site was in Campbell Park which had little surf. Cadre always preferred North Shore. Student Safety was ALWAYS top priority and training would get modded to reflect conditions.

Not an entirely lazy day.
Do have a plan for my solar powered pool pump.
I can swap out 2 80 watt panels for 2 235 watt panels. Of course that means modifying the support frame, so an unplanned trip to HD for some aluminum angle. Plan is to remove the 2 80 watt panels, redo the frame and shift 2 of the 123w panels from opposite end. Extend that end of the frame to accept the 2 larger 235w panels. Then rewire in series. Of course this involves ladder and scaffold. The results will be a significant power boost.

Unplanned trip included a delicious late lunch with Sophie at our favorite Japanese restaurant. Also opportunity to refill the diesel cans.

A dip in the pool and relax in the hot tube to finish the day. Work tomorrow.

Drinking cup of hot coffee. 44° with partly cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 68° with mostly sunny skies. Temperatures in house got to where furnace is needed to keep house warm. Cleaned humidifier and replaced pad. Replace air filter and turned on. Got instant heat. Last week I was running the AC because temperature where close to 90°. Things are still very wet. Grass was still wet when I cut it in late afternoon. Grocery shopping this morning. Then take Sassy in for grooming.
Slippery slope in to waterfall.

David, enjoy your time in the pool.

Don, Estate Sale at home across road from me. Going to put a couple things I want to get rid of out front. Hope they are gone by end of the day.

Everyone stay safe and well.

Good Morning All.

63 going to 79. Nice weather next few days.

Ron, 44 is getting cold already. Good luck selling your stuff.

Buppies, hope that scan is all clear.

Did some shrub pruning and string trimming yesterday until the batteries died (and I was licked). Haven't seen any garden spiders this year, yet.
