good morning all
33 going up to 55, should be a nice day

Thomas, that's a lot of turkeys. Got cranberries?...

going to Solebury Meeting this morning, right down the street.
Not attending "my" Meeting due to continuing problems with certain individuals, long story.
Need to wait them out and then I'll go back. Just decided to walk away instead of battling with some folks
who refuse to be honest and open. Truthfulness is a prime directive in my faith and despite being able to "win" and prove
my point, it isn't worth it, creates too much internal commotion. Sometimes you have to know when to fold them.
Well....I always look for silver linings. Will have more time to travel and less desire to go to Meeting every Sunday.

This afternoon I'll be putting water in the rv and testing out the plumbing. Still have some cold nights ahead but not where temps stay below
freezing for a long time. I'll keep a little heat in the unit and put the water tank heaters on. Curious to see if they work...
yesterday hung some art in rv, starting to feel like a little home on wheels.

tomorrow am off to dealer two hours West to get the heating system fixed, install new toilet, install new tv and finally put on an aftermarket
TPMS system. Then I should be ready to hit the road.

Good Morning!!!! 37F @ 4:45AM. Rain showers early becoming a steady light rain for the afternoon. High near 50F. Winds S at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 60%.
We got another .22" of rain yesterday, some of it coming down as small hail. And another .42" since midnight, along with some gale force wind. What I'd always thought was the steel porch cover making the squeaking sounds on the back porch turns out to the the aluminum screens over the sliding glass doors instead. Not sure what to do about that, though it would be one less thing to disturb my sleep if I did.

Thanks for posting that, Drew. I wonder if it works the same way with the tap pads at gas pumps?

We're having trouble with the Board of Directors making unpopular changes to the Airheads motorcycle club again. No surprise, as nothing was done after the last time they did it to prevent just three people from going rogue and pushing things sideways. This time, though, they're censoring all debate, keeping contrary opinions out of the printed newsletter that most members use to stay abreast of such events. And many of them don't even have email addresses, so to this point they're pretty much clueless about the shenanigans. Not sure what's to be done about it, as the answer seems to be at least one pay grade above me. Sad behavior in a club whose Canons say they value "friendship over friction".

I searched through the inventories of most of the Los Angeles Ford dealers yesterday looking for a Transit match. Not many of them order the long range gas tank, so I came up pretty much empty handed. It would be a LOT easier if Ford improved its online search tool by including more criteria fields, but I've had enough of tilting at windmills for now.

Same sort of thing with the house hunt, as digging through online records for plot maps and calculating areas and coverage limits from satellite photography is time consuming and a bit tedious. But it's raining out and I guess I've nothing better to do.

Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekend!

Worked for me, it was an entertaining ride. I liked your daughters commentary.
Thanks for letting me know it worked. This was about halfway through the storm. Total was 12" in 16 hours. We passed several people with front wheel drive vehicles who couldn't get going even on the flat. (Probably no snow tires.). At one place where we stopped for a red light, the guy trying to go when his cross street light turned green kept trying and trying until our light turned green and it was our turn to go. (He had a front wheel drive minivan.) As we drove through the intersection, my daughter said "I wonder how long he's been sitting there trying to make it through the intersection each time his light turned green, and getting nowhere?"🤣

People need to get snow tires in the winter. Period.

The ironic part is that all those buses were on the road because the subway was down. I wonder how those buses eventually got going? (The snowplows were out in full force, so hopefully not too long.)

BTW all is clear now and main roads are bare (but sidewalks are a mess, and the kid runs to work).

Good Morning

Yesterday was a busy day in the shop lots of bracing installed in the latest speaker.

It’s a project in itself to get it all clamped into place.

Had to change a gas valve on a pizza oven at the restaurant, the new one was a little different, had to use a knockout punch to “adjust” the stainless cover to fit, but overall a quick and easy job.

Then back to speakers in the shop.

More of the same today, but need a trip to HD for some supplies.

Worked for me too! Do you have studded tires?
