was disappointed to find out rv coach batteries were only group 24 aka small.
Had hoped for at least 27. Didn't look like lots of extra room in there.
will go agm instead of flooded, batteries are exposed to road crud down below, will be spraying all the rusty
spots with oil shortly. Want to test them with load meter to see how they will do. If they test out ok, I'll take the connectors off,
clean everything and back together. Don't want to rely on accumulated corrosion (there wasn't much) to hold cable on...
not easy to get to, crawling around on ground.

Drew, wouldn't it be nice to be able to afford lithium?

Good afternoon
It’s a nice day here
43 now, it was about 10 degrees colder this AM.

Yesterday started in the shop and ended up in Boston. Logan airport is a busy place, and they often use multiple runways. When we left we had to taxi across 3 runways to get to our departure runway, 2 of those 3 were active. No wonder they have so many incursions there.

Today is in the shop and some outside drainage work, replacing a 12” pipe under a lane and cleaning out some swales that feed the pipe.

Airport Authority meeting tonight, I feel like a busy guy, but did take wife out to lunch for her birthday.

Lou, sorry to hear about your brother, hopefully your treatment gets you back on your feet at home.

PopGadget - I thought Logan had the latest SW ASDE-3 Radar, maybe no one is looking at that, should give a warning when planes come too close, Maybe the planes are too packed up for that to work?
I have been out of the loop for a long time, would think they could get very precise, considering the resolution that radar has.

Good morning TBN Brothers and Sisters. I hope all are well and in good spirits today.
Warm this morning, near 70 at 4am headed to 80 again. Hoping to get Lime spread on hay field before rains on Thursday. The guy spreading for me is having a tough time with his trucker. The trucker doesn't show till after lunchtime which makes it difficult to get loaded and spread.

Newest F-35 (fifth generation fighter) Lightning II by Lockheed Martin. Production so far estimated at near 900.
Version A (conventional take-off landing)
Version B (short take-off vertical landing)
Version C (carrier variant)
USAF said F-35 will replace F-16 and A-10 (say it ain't so!) Cannot imagine this aircraft can loiter like the A-10!

To all, a healthy and prosperous day!

Well this sure isn't morning and I though long about before posting.
It's been a long week already.
Lost my brother Sunday we had know it was coming for quite some time.
Obituary of Daniel Craig Marchaland | Flynn Bros Inc. - Greenwich
Then I hadn't been feeling real good for a few weeks and Monday was a rough day,
sent my Primary care doctor a message and got a call back to get to the ER.
So spent the afternoon waiting in the ER with breaks for some tests then got stuck
in a room at the ER at 6 for more testing and scans, ended up getting admitted at 2AM to the Hospital
diagnosed with Congestive heart failure (failure had me asking what in the hell it's still working) so
it still works just not right. So new diet mild exercise and see what happens. Between COPD, arthritis,
and Afib now this have to wonder about things at times.
Every one stay safe and healthier then me

Lou, you and your family has my prayers and condolences. Watch your salt intake. Hope they get your heart working.

Drew, wouldn't it be nice to be able to afford lithium?

I'd have to make some other expensive changes, like adding an Xantrex inverter/charger that is rated for lithium voltage. What is in there now sure isn't.
Since I do so little boondocking, just not a priority for me. Can run the gen for an hour a day to charge up house batteries.

dvd/cd player just showed up, tiny thing, headed out to plug it in, get some tunes going

Thoughts prayers to family Lou.
Glad you made the phone call hope you'll take it easy.
