Good morning!!!!

I'm back from the quack appointment, he won't sign off on the license medical. Claims I need to be out of hospital 3 months yet it doesn't say that on any of the paperwork. Why I despise doctors.

67°F and .6 inches rain.

Still coughing so gonna not play H&F today.

Hope it dries enough to mow some with the BX and hand mow the dogs’ area.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

it's the airplane ride that makes you sick. I was sick for weeks after flying back from Hawaii...

successful but long morning.
four hours later got out of truck shop.
reservoir had plenty of hydraulic fluid in it, so clearly the cylinder was bad.
new one quiet as can be. He used almost a whole can of fluid to top off the reservoir.
We tried it, backs came down fine, fronts were weird, but I have to reset the null/reboot the brain.

hydraulic pump and reservoir area pretty coated in oil.
Mfg told me unit was self purging so I assume there is a vent/breather there someplace, perhaps
cause of oil after five years. Tech cleaned it up nicely, left it better than he found it.

120 for PA truck inspection, then two hours at 150 when he actually put in three. This guy is very fair.
nice equipment in shop also. He even had a paver in there he was working on.
We fix anything attitude. Mostly big trucks around the building, but two motorhomes also

engine and trans area dry as a bone.
hopefully this will be last of fixits before I leave.
though I still have that engine cover to do.
always something.

he added two quarts of antifreeze. Glad he checked; asked him to check all fluids.
I'm going to change the motor and generator oil one cooler morning in next month.

filled up with 87 octane for 3.45

was so hot out when I got home didn't want to go out and barbecue some nice burgers.
So I did them inside

watered the tomatoes in big deck pot, they dry out much faster than ones planted in ground.
I have to water them every two days.

I was very surprised to be told brakes were hardly worn at 41,000 miles.
can pads age out as well as wear out? oem Ford E-450
obviously rv spends a lot of time going, not stopping.

Did he change the oil on the bicycle too ?

these just showed up. My water is awful and I need to quantify and document it to landlord.
I expect very acidic and likely very hard.

will bring these gizmos with me on my rv trip. I don't expect high accuracy but maybe a PH sensor is very old news.
Anywhere I stop I can check the water, but not for potability.
I only drink bottled water usually in the rv, despite my quadruple filters on the rv water system.
Standard Camco filter at the hydrant and then a three way filter under the kitchen sink.
who cares what goes to the toilet..........

my oldest and best friend was head of a big city health dept, he would love these...in addition to his pocket thermometer.
I will certainly bring them with me when I see Ken and Popgadget next.

nothing like a new tool and I love gauges and data...

119V at the wall, speaking of gauges, PECO is keeping up. Just got a heat warning notice from them
jinxed it, now down to 117

how low can it go?...

I bet every ac unit in more than half the country is running right now.
at least with this bright sunlight, the solar panels can help.
Even Canada is hot, this is a serious draw on the grid.
