Good morning!!!!

I worked on a pipe organ a couple of times in the Overlea area back in '09, I think. Really neat old stone church. The places I had to crawl and walk though in that old church were absolutely filthy, though. It was clealy an old industrial town. Other than just being dirty, though, I didn't find my times there awful. They people I met were all friendly and helpful. I do know Baltimore has a reputation for having a crime problem there, but being from the St. Louis area and working in this city every day, there's not a lot that could shock me anywhere else.

St Michael maybe? Overlea is a good area.

When I was in university of Maryland rehab center in Baltimore with GBS, one of my roommates was a recovering street gang member that got shot at least 5 times (targeted). I was afraid his “ friends” might come to visit at the hospital.

The the PEX is tight. I left the system pressurized overnight with the compressor off. Here’s the pressure reading before, and after about 18 hours.

Certainly not air tight, but pretty decent. I think the swivel in a hose reel is responsible for that drop.

Woodchuckdad did his plumbing with pexA, you can watch his YouTube videos on installing it. I stopped and visited his build in October. Here’s a link to his build.

Before Dad became the Toronto terminal passenger agent, he was on the ticket counter. Excited passenger runs up to the counter and asks the age old question, "what time does the 4 o'clock train leave"? Dads' answer :3:60

It's now cold day and night but once again the snow melted as it fell. Got up at 430 this morning to get the car melted of to take the wife to work. Horse watering with no electricity set up is interesting.

A hoof seems to work well.

Dad used to bust thru the ice on our springs with a sledge for the cows to have water.
