Good morning!!!!

Good morning,
36° now highs mid 40’s and rain until early evening. Winds N 10-15 mph. We had about 3” wet snow then 0.55” rain yesterday. Should see another 0.25” rain today, we can still use it. Snow is mostly gone.

Slippery slushy ride to the dump yesterday morning, that seemed like a good reason to stop for coffee a donut and chat with some friends until the salt trucks went by. When I got home we had lost power for about an hour or so, tree branches on wires down the road popped a transformer. Spent the rest of the day going through pics and files on a couple of old hard drives, boy the stuff that gets saved lol.

Not sure what today will bring, probably just putter a bit and then conserve energy.

Enjoy your day everyone
Stay safe and healthy

got a second rvtrader inquiry on rv. Guess I'd better get it all working today.
going to take laptop with me, and portable wifi, and if prospect coming this afternoon,
will get comfortable there and just wait. After I wash the rv, run the gen, and fix the water pump.

And after I find the new water pump in the garage. Somewhere in one of those storage bins
going to take those nice Swiss butt connectors that are lever acting and self crimping. Very slick but would be
even better if I melted some shrinkwrap over it all. Which of course would defeat the nice lever action
but might add some reliability. Nothing pulling on the wire so fine just the way it is, but my experience has been in boats
and you want to waterproof all connections as well as possible, even if in places that shouldn't get water.

and with my new rear bed wood prop, I can now work under the hinged bed
without worrying about it crashing down on me.
need to take my big Makita flashlight

this all assumes the easy way doesn't work. There is an air nipple on the water pump accumulator, and I think it needs a tiny
amount like 3 pounds. So just going to touch the button for one second, so as not to blow up the bladder, using my portable Makita air pump.
it's low cfm but that's a little bladder in there. Would be better to do with old fashioned bike pump but none of them here.
if it still water hammers after getting a dose of air, I'll try another dose, watching the pressure gauge. If that doesn't work I think winter did in the bladder. Replacement pump has none, a much better variable speed pump that doesn't need an accumulator.

but I'll take the easy way...

miles to go before I sleep.

GOOD MORNING TRUMPISTAN!
Here in my little slice of Kanuckistan it's aboot freezing and going up to mid50s+.
Supposedly sunny too. A nice change from what we have been experiencing.
Heavy layer of frost starting out the morning. We had fog and high humidity which I guess froze
sometime towards sunrise.
Enjoy your Sunday.
At our average ages there's probably enough doctors out there saying we shouldn't be eating all that ice cream.

Good morning TBN!!
28!!! this morning. Should be low 60s in full sun.
Mostly an easy day of puttering yesterday. Too cold to restart PWing and too windy.
I did go down and scrape the inside on spots that needed extra attention. Maybe PW today or wait until tomorrow when we will be back in the 80s.
Dog walked and certainly again today. Never ending LOL

Time for a second cup
Everyone have a great and safe day!!

Enjoy your day.

Good Morning,
Vt, 34 to start going to 46 with cloudy skies this morning.

Woke up to a cool kitchen this morning, Dovre stove not going on again. Temp was down to 63 so I’m using the oven to bring the temp up a few degrees. Also have the wood stove going in our family room so it’s toasty in here. Looks I need to order some parts and I’m going to try and schedule a gas technician to come out here the next time we come up. The good news is that we are at the end of the heating season so hopefully we can get this straightened out soon.

We will be cleaning up later and heading home early this afternoon.

Hope all have a blessed and safe day

to head off. Had to fill six bird feeders first, squirrels are costing me big time
time to get the bb gun out

good morning, 45 going to 59 and may see the sun today

Slept in longer than mormal

Kind of borderline to fire up but did it anyway. Feels good

Drew good luck selling the RV

Did work some more on the kitchen. The old Wolf 6 burner and 2 ovens propane range got to go wife says and be replaced.

Worked on clearing out a flower bed to get ready for new plantings. The crap grass roots are hard to get all pulled out. May do a few times more to be sure. The finger surveyed with just some light pain and swelling
