Good morning!!!!

The battery M12 XC6.0 may still be under warranty but can not find the receipt. Did not realize that it may have a 3 year warranty period. HD does not keep receipts longer than 2 years I think but also may have bought it with a gift card so no record. Costco keeps receipts a lot longer

Prayers for all our Country

just saw a taylor swift video posted showing her putting out a kitchen fire in apartment in NYC.
Talk about doing everything wrong...
pan on stove on fire.
drop a larger pan on top or use an approved fire smothering blanket. She clearly did not have one.
Nor did she have the new style fire extinguishers made for kitchens with basically AFFF liquid inside, not
dry powder that blasted all over Swifts kitchen and made a huge mess.

I highly recommend everyone have a fire smothering blanket and mini fire extinguisher in their kitchen.

I'm not a Swifty!
But I have seen her.
You saw that video and all you noticed were her fire fighting materials?
Really...?

btw, the new formula fire extinguishers are rated for lithium battery fires, which have clearly become a reality
for us all
I have one in the motorhome also.

just don't put things on the stove and walk away...
we've all done it and sometimes paid the price.
I'd much prefer to smother a fire. Less mess, less collateral damage
there may be better quality units than what I posted.
We have other firemen here.
interested to hear what your favorite home extinguisher is.

when I had the farm in NC I knew a drypowder was a poor solution for something on fire in the barn so
I got an old fashioned pressurized water extinguisher in addition to several 10ABC ones.
That thing could squirt some water, and easy to charge with air.
Better to have a charged high pressure hose line but my water pressure at barn wasn't great.

many years experience on the end of a charged high pressure one inch booster line. Inch and a half lines were for big stuff and 2 1/2 for
water supply. And my all time worst favorite means of moving water was carrying a brass water tank on my back trudging up the train tracks in New Hope after the tourist train steam engine sparks had set a bunch of fields on fire. We didn't have a nice attack/field unit early on. We got one when I was there and that was good because I was usually the one driving it. When your insurance office is one block from the fire house, my partner, who was Chief, we got that first rig going pretty quickly. Wonderful days until I wrecked my back on several fires. Sure wasn't filing a claim, since I insured the fire company.
small town stuff is wonderful.

Good Morning,
Ct, 68 to start going to 90 or so again ! Thunderstorms started here around 4:30 and went through until about 8 pm. A town just north of us had a mini tornado!

You saw that video and all you noticed were her fire fighting materials?
Really...?

GM Massey , thanks for that, we think alike ! Always enjoy a chuckle in the morning!

Looks like I need to make breakfast for the kiddos, and of course some bacon !

Only one church service today, 9 am so I better get moving ! Sounds like more unsettled weather for this afternoon! Hope all have a blessed and safe Sunday !

78 outside this AM, heading to upper 90's again. The grasses and everything else are taking a sun beating. Even the dandelions are wilting.

Gotta run and get the animals taken care of. After that a little lawn work between the houses is in order.

Hope all have a good day. Be safe, hydrate. Don't over do anything.
