Good late (Monday) arvo. The overnight Low was 10C and it's presently 24.6C, clear all day with the odd gust.

We got away this morning at 0650 for an uneventful direct trip to Launie AP prior to 0900 (1000 flight). All tasks that could be accomplished in the 'big smoke' were done and my Brisbane Mate & I returned home by 1430. Sorry that this is brief but that's pretty much how the day went, very organised.

That's about it, take care all.

I figured for the Mr Cool excess length, you could straighten out what you need and cover it accordingly, and just leave the excess in a coil and hide it behind the condenser unit. Is it optimum, no, but the money saved by DIY would be my biggest factor buying one.

Wifey and I had a great weekend. Went on a date yesterday after getting her some more paint at Lowes. We went to eat at the Kenney Store, just south of Bellville Texas.

Then after church today, we drove to HEB south in Lagrange Texas, and got enough stuff and fixings to BBQ 24 hamburgers for some friends and guests. It was another beautiful day.

We had a very short 5 minute rain shower last night after dark.
Wicked headache sore throat nose running non stop hope better tomorrow
Hope you get better soon Bupps. Prayers.

David, your pic reminds me of a discussion at work many years ago about lean-to additions and how they get shorter and shorter till the last one only holds a mower.
my shed is at the top of a slope, I was able to add 2 shed additions by extending down the hill

34° up in the night. Was just raining or sleeting.
Not too bad since I don’t have to go to work tomorrow. I got more supplies (drop clothes and plastic protection via Amazon) to paint more of the kitchen ceiling, but I might just take the day off.
Wife returns later today from attending a funeral for an Aunt. She asked me to make a Costco run, so will coordinate that with lunch. Saw mission BBQ will be closed today for some company event.

Good morning, the low is 26 and high to 32°F. Wind WSW 8 mph. 60% chance of flurries.

daugen:
Now my understanding is that Canada is mostly hydroelectric. They have six nuke plants, including the Bruce plant, largest operating nuclear plant in the world.

I helped build the first nuke plant. Hauled gravel into there (Pickering) for over 6 months. After it was commissioned I got out of there. I was raised in Pickering.
Now the big to-do is where to get rid of the spent nukes. Nobody wants any part of it. There was talk of storing it in Kirkland Lake in a decommissioned mine, but I think the NIMBYs put the kibosh on that.
The powers that think they be say that nuke power is clean, but hydro electric is cleaner in my eyes. Water flows, big paddle wheel turns, electricity is made and no waste.

I have to get into garage sometime soon and box up a bunch of spare stuff I has for the Jeep. I think there are 8 spare landing lights (we truck drivers up here used them for moose lights back in the day), a new heater 4 speed switch, a K&N filter with a recharge kit, a pair of fender flares and a rebuild kit for the hi-lift jack. I had a pair of LED spot lights on the rear bumper and buddy called me up yesterday asking where I 'hid' the switch for them. I asked him if he took a good look at the lights, no he says. I told him to take a real good look at them and he will see, there is no switch. I never hooked up the power to the lights. Whenever I wanted to back up in the dark, I used the 4 way flashers. The light from them was enough to illuminate my way.

After I get the expenses under control, I am thinking about a new (to me) pickup.

Buppies; get better soon. Whenever I had a runny nose I found that Vicks Inhalers helped to stop up the tap.

Have a safe day all
