Good Morning
75 here in Orlando, thunderstorms later in the day with a high of 95.
A good day to be inside.

Yesterday was a good day, I did get to fly the little airplane, the left brake failed, but it was a non issue. Removed the master cylinder and took it home, but that’s as far as I got. Cleaned up a couple more blown over dead trees, visited with grandson and family, stopped by local RC field and saw a mid air collision before getting packed up to go to training. Flight to Orlando was not bad, there was a line of thunderstorms along the coast of FL we had to deal with, but overall, not bad.

looks like this system is going to stick around for a while
lovely day here

have been researching battery backup sump pumps.
my cellar will flood during heavy rains if power goes out.
if I'm off in my rv in east gibbip need a backup plan.
I showed landlord how to run back up gen yesterday but that is too hard a solution.
I need something automatic and built in.
maybe:

58 going to 88. Maybe a shower. Still some Canada smoke in the air.

Ron, hope you have a Wonderful Birthday!

RS, nice job on that engine.

Kyle, good advice to your son wearing boots by the tank, where good food sources of amphibians, insects, etc will bring in the snakes.

Mostly, those are some cool old bridges.

Didn't see the skunk this morning, but sure could smell he was here last night...plus some overturned rocks, where he was looking for tasty treats.

Good morning, 63 going to 87 today

Had a good day yesterday with not much getting done and kids visiting or calling.

Today will do the full work out for upper body and legs and some walking before it gets too hot.

Will see what I will get into.

Bridge designs are always interesting to me. We had bridge design as part of the curriculum. Rail road flange bridges were fairly simple with the truss bridges being much more involved and before computers with slide rules and Log tables. I was glad not having that as a career

looking forward to going boating near the campground
my rv site is in the inside middle at the end, if you can zoom in, just behind the bathhouse.
I've figured out how to get there by rv, now I am trying to find some boat charts online I can study.
need some fun destinations on the water not too far from Cedarville
first time I'll have my hands on a boat steering wheel in over six years.
I'm taking my brother an updated portable vhf radio as a house present, one with the new Canadian boat channels.
And a new fanny pack pfd. Yes, self servingly...but I'll leave them when I go.

boy would it be cool to see one of those 1000 foot lake freighters
Never got that big in Chesapeake.

lot of islands in this area, so many places to explore in a small boat
looks like a trip to Mackinac Island for lunch would be like heading to Bimini
from Ft Lauderdale. A little too far away for my little 16 footer.

she is coming to Philadelphia I guess soon and what great timing with Rt 95 shut down.

we had a pair of her tickets as a grand prize for the school's auction. It was bid up quite a bit.


blue sky with a little grey haze, not bad, going to be warm today

I'm going to a friend's for dinner, will pick my first green pepper and it will go in our
salad tonight.

Morning all, 69 going to 86 and sunny.
Did about 90% of the deck powerwashing.
Did a run with wife and dog to peddlers village for a beer or two to relax.
Dinner of lactose free stuffed shells and key lime pie were really good. Have not had stuffed shells in more than 30 years.

Today finish power washing, clean vines out of front bush the birds like so much, then maybe off to somewhere before we drop the kid at work around 5pm.

BEF - sounds like one of the HDMI signals is not coming through on the cable. For digital signals, it can be finicky and may need something in line to boost the signal.

RS - fun watching you take apart and reassemble the engine. You make it look easy when we know even getting one rusty or over-torqued bolt out can take a lot of time.

Sodamo- does the power roller make any mess like the sprayer in the wind. Was looking at the 5 model vs. the 7, was the roller a big $ jump? what made you decide x7 vs. x5?

Bad news from Brother, he is out of work as of next month, high risk/reward job did not pan out.
And to top it off he got a lung infection that affected his heart, will find out how bod from Dr. this week, hopefully not too bad.

Happy birthday Ron, we enjoy your pictures and company here.

Drew had a backup sump pump at my old house, I think it was a watchdog. Most important is a good battery, battery case and battery minder as I did not like the battery charger the sump units came with. Also need to raise the battery up a bit in case water does come up a bit. Better battery, longer the backup pump works.

Be well,

Can see how dark it was in the background, though without a real winter, not as bad as usual. The deerflies were a nuisance though.

Wouldn't the left brake cylinder be the likely problem?
