Found a 1 inch split in our 4000 gal poly water tank. The tank is 23 yrs old. I ordered a poly repair kit on Amazon. Should arrive this evening. Anybody have any experience with this?
Is there a thread here with this discussion?

I am going to guess that drilling holes at each end of the crack to relieve the stress and stop it from continuing to fracture would be part of that…

NYC is flooding big time, look at the precip totals up and down the Hudson, ten inches of rain in one spot
rats will be crawling out of the subways today

Well, that is one way to clean all the $#!+ off the sidewalks…

Good (Saturday) morning. Overnight Low of 10.1C and it's presently 25.9C! Fairly clear with variable winds throughout the day. This warm weather can't last for long... we're only one month into Spring so 'cold snaps' have to be coming.

Tonight is "Spring Forward" an hour on our clocks. I've also noticed (what with all of the sunshine) that the house-spiders have been overly busy making cob-webs. It's a never ending battle but they must be eating something.

Starting next Saturday and, excluding Sunday, I'll be busy all that week manning a 'booth' during pre-polling & polling day for a national referendum vote. I won't say what it's for or how I'll vote due to the wonderful TBN policy of no-politics.

Anyway, that's about it, take care all.

Spring and Autumn, oh the joy of walking face-first into spiderwebs..

good morning all
up way too early but ?
have to beat Ron once in a while

used to be a race to beat Roy. Sure miss him. Rest in peace friend.

rain is done here, 1.44 on gauge, cloudy day
I have two jobs planned, one to get mums for outside planters and second
to get some good exercise and wash the rv. I did get the chromed bits cleaned yesterday, already starting to
etch from the salt. I would really like to clean the top of the rv, would help with black streaking, but I'm not climbing up there.
That could end very badly. Many things are just more sketchy when you are doing it yourself, with no other sets of eyes nearby.
(like me backing up the motorhome... )

paid insurance bill last night, Westfield, HO and auto, 2100 for car, tenant homeowners and $3M umbrella. Up about 10 percent from last year.
1000 dollar deductibles keep the cost down, but all those years when car insurance was 7-800 a year. Now it's 1500.
of course look at the cost of a new truck or an EV

decided to let my winter beard start while on vacation, so now at point where all white beard is coming in.
I keep it cut at lowest setting, purely for staying warm in winter. It comes off in March for my birthday.

hope you all have a nice weekend.

I would adjust them to the heavy setting by turning the shaft while it is bottomed out

Frits, new tech, non adjustable. Bilsteins made for max control, Konis made for max ride. New valving seems to handle impact bumps better.

Are KONI FSD's adjustable? No, KONI FSD's are continuously adjusting themselves. This technology replaces the adjustability by hand.

Drinking warm cup of coffee. 52° with fog this morning. Heading to 74° with mostly cloudy skies. Got car washed. It should stay that way for awhile. No rain forecast until late next week. Got Trak-Vac out of back of barn. Need to get it ready for leaf pickup. Some trees are starting to get color. While I had pressure washer out. Cleaned all the bird feeders. Added a perch for birds to land on to one of them. Did get some conserve energy time in afternoon.
Will see what is needs to be done today.
Sassy wanted out at 11:30 yesterday evening. Harvest Full Moon was shining bright.

Everyone stay well and safe.

Good Morning All.
