    and that’s just going to the coffee pot.
    Took a 3 day break from the gym.
    Time to get back at it…
    Heat still coming on and wind still stiff so not sure if the boat will float this week.
    Worse spring I can remember.
    But, I’m sure it will get perfect when the outsiders come to take over the state.
    Hope all are safe.

    MORE COFFEE!!!!

    Sorry I missed dinner. I have not done lobster tails in quite a while.

    Congratulations All the hard work and physical therapy worked! Right in time for summer too.

    You think you own your property. Just wait till any government wants to build a highway through your property. But I jest. :D Have a great week Mike.

    Today is errand day. Three loads of laundry this morning, Harris Teeter grocery stop, Wild Bird Unlimited bird food stop, and go over to my sisters for a few items. A little pond maintenance this morning and cooking a chicken on the smoker this afternoon.

    A little something every chance we get.
    :pccoffee: Morning Porch Pals & Gals! Was a nice dinner, and I almost got the big stuff wrapped up yesterday. I should finish today, and all back together.
    Would have been nicer the last three days; if after the morning shower of 0.05", the wind would have picked back up. Thick as a brick!

    I aim to tease, but I'm real happy how this is going!

    Expansions of Scott AFB, IL in the late '80s eliminated or significantly decreased the size of several family farming operations. Most of the land/farms had been in the family for a century or more.

    Mornin’ folks!
    Going to be upper 80s through the weekend here in the piedmont of NC, getting hot too fast for me! Supposed to drop back to 70s after that.
    Today is the first day of the NHL playoffs and of course I’m pulling for the Canes!!!

    Ya know, it's always one thing. No wonder the bolt won't tighten.

    But, I'm glad I bought these for something else!!

    I'll have to get another bolt sometime, and I learned something to boot. Onwards!!

    Can the ground be run under the carpet and attached to the shifter?

    The 12 MM bolt (or its current replacement) works just dandy.

    Is that a power cap near the Amp? I think that what it is called.

    It is. I call it a Flux Capacitor, because I'm old. 2uf, general rule is 1 uF per 1000 Watts, and I have 1800, which is plenty for me. And I used to not think they mattered, but they do. A lot. I'd have loved to put it in the engine bay, but....no space that's safe.

    I had a Orion HCCA Amp. I wish I had a power cap then. I couldn't use my headlights at night.

    In the engine bay, Will heat become an issue for the power cap?
