Good morning!!!!

I still answer my phones almost all the times
Lou, you remind me of me. How you can you hear the fire call if you turn off your pager?....

What really galls me is my 91 year old MIL is in that area code so first I see that and I jump and then I see my old exchange and
once again it's some bozo call.

The heavy rains recently had washed in the furrows I had made a few weeks ago for potatoes so I had
to hand hoe the whole thing. By the end of that long row, I really, really did understand
the old saying of that's a long row to hoe...
One more row done, one more to go.

I have no idea how that row got so crooked at the far end, but I am a firm believer in my newly learned wisdom here
that crooked rows hold more potatoes. I read that right here so you just know it has to be true.

Picked up sticks in the fruit orchard, mowed it quickly with the new big mower, being careful not to wreck my fence on turns
in the corner. Not used to that rear end swinging out behind me. Boy you yank on that wheel while moving and it's a fun house
cup spin, spinning on almost its own length. I learned very quickly to do that more gently after one WHOA moment.
Didn't chew up the lawn though which zero turn usually will if you work at it.

Am pretty worn out, hot shower helped, made a fresh pot of coffee which I'm now doing half decaf to moderate the caffeine because
it was bothering my stomach. Since I started doing half and half, my stomach has felt better.
That first cup of coffee tasted wonderful.

I still answer my phones almost all the times, I get upset when my wife doesn't answer hers

We're just the opposite; my wife is going to be in a hurry to answer either phone anytime it rings. I'll take my time and look to see if it's from someone I want to answer.

I've been using SPAM filters on my email accounts for a long time, and can't remember the last time I saw one of those scam letters make it through. The giveaway is always the awkward wording. I think they get it from being former British colonies.:laughing::laughing::laughing: (sorry, Eric). :drink:

Hey..... I resemble that................Out here (upside-down) we speakada the English real good.:cool2:

I know we all miss RS, Drew, but you don't have to kill yourself trying to carry on with his do-it-all-today antics and making the rest of us slackers look bad.:laughing:

Which part? The phone spammer part or the awkward wording part?:laughing:

1:40 to get home, but that included a gas stop.

I'm sure they will but first it has to grow...I'm all promises to them now.

Managed to brush up against the electric fence today and got a shock bad enough to hurt my elbow. :thumbsup:
Bambi and Bunny aren't going to like that on the end of their pink noses for sure.
I did need to disconnect the solar panel from the charger, green lights flashing saying overvoltage to both battery and controller, so I pulled the positive connector apart and all was well. I need to rig up an on off switch but this is 30amp cable and awfully thick to work with. May need a standard electrical box. Considering the 100W output of the panel, a simple knife switch would do. But it's clear the controller that comes with this system can't dissipate excess power and just go in float mode like I thought. System settings default to a sealed battery, which I have.
Charged battery will go three to four days from experience. I'll let it go three days and plug it back in. Will be interesting to see how fast it goes from green to blinking green. Maybe I need a bigger battery...
