San Antonio

Ha, good deal. I think the new truck has that feature but I'm not sure...

 

I wouldn’t doubt it!

 

I could spend an entire day just figuring the darn thing out.... but it shall sit in the barn again for the week.

 

Morning

 

Sup Danny

 

Good Morning SA!
​

 

Trying to stay warm

Would be nice to be by the fire right now

 

Good morning for that

 

You at work?

 

Unfortunately, trying to stay warm while trying to keep the power plant warm

Morning Scott

Good Morning SA! Somewhere on the chilly side at 22* when I got up the first time. VERY happy to say that no door blew open, and the greenhouse was a nice 56* inside!!

That fire looks nice, Scott. Loaded a wagon full of wood for the fireplace, so the wife and dog could watch Yellowstone with a fire; because she said that'd be great. Didn't want a fire after that.

All of my Amazon shock biscuits came yesterday, so I wait on the Down South package, and warmer afternoon to tackle the rears again. Other than taking down the outdoor lights today, it's a slow start on the plan for this week.

 

Good morning SA! I am enjoying my last day off before going back in. I sure am going to miss these 4 day weekends when I retire…

 

Ummmm

Retire, your too young for that

 

*retire from the Army...

 

Lol I get it, was just messin with ya

 

Good afternoon gents! The truck showed 15.8*F this morning when i started it up

Hopefully no more of that anytime soon..

 

Hmmm, we might have to figure out a refill/u-joint trip in the near future?

Afternoon Robert! Nope, don't need to test the greenhouse any more! But there are two more 32* overnights on the week to come.....

If it ain't one thing, it's TWO things.

So, I'm happily putting up the outside stuff, dawdling along, and my garage computer/stereo won't give me my XM Oldies. The app was literally "frozen"! And the amp wouldn't do anything either. So, I tried my old phone and Bluetooth into the amp, and one by one things came up. Then went down. First, one channel of the amp just quit, then the whole thing did. Dang it...too quiet to work! Have to pick out a new amp.

So, when I finished with the decorations, I guess I will finally fire the generator up. Well, dang, the only thing I forgot to get was new gas! So, load up the new can in the truck, fire the truck up and TICK TOCK TICK TOCK TICK TOCK. WTF!?! Turn off things one by one, turn on things one by one - everything works, have volts, nothing on fire under the hood. Finally hit the RECIRC switch, and there we go. The actuator has gone bad sitting in the driveway. Theoretically, adventurous old people can pull the glove box and fix it, so I ordered a part, and will do so next week when it comes.

And here I thought I was done ordering stuff! At least these aren't high $$ items.

 

Afternoon Kurt! I'm sure last night was a plenty good test for the green house. How cold did it get down to up your way? And how warm does the greenhouse stay in those conditions?

That's good work troubleshooting on the generator. I know what you mean, it does seem like there's always something that needs our attention

 

From last night to this morning; Outdoor on top, greenhouse on bottom.



Red on outdoor is below 32*. You can see the oil heater cycle on about 45* and off at 55*. (Monitor is not the same as the control T'stat..)

 

First time smoking anything in a while, it was delicious!!
