We have a annual burn ban from Jun 15 or so to sep 30 or so. We have done 3 burns so far this month. We collect a lot word.

Great story on your HVAC, weird they were going to charge you. Crappy contractor.

Our Habaneros are just now starting to turn from green to orange. They are actually getting yellowish right now. It is wet and nasty here. We’ve had roughly 1 inch of rain over the weekend. Temps are not near freezing yet and nothing close for the next…[Read more]

I am hoping this is all under warranty. What a nightmare. You should have refused the bill from HVAC, they should have known about that e switch word.

I changed out the water pump and that didn’t work. Then I heard weird noises. It turns out the old pump was still working. The fan will not turn when the system tries to get it going. It goes forward and backward and makes a weird noise. Then it stops doing that for about 2 minutes and tries again. So not the water pump. This is a…[Read more]

Hi AC – Glad you are back. Hopefully all is well with you and yours.

Furnace failed to run this morning. It is high efficiency so it makes water. I figured the pump broke so I changed it. Nope. It is a new furnace, and it is trying to run, I can hear it and the fan is trying to turn. The furnace guys are trying to help me over the…[Read more]

I remember when I moved to MN in the Twin Cities, my neighbor warned me about winter and told me how to prepare. He said there will be a 3 week Indian Summer and that is the time to get it all done because after 3 weeks, the freeze starts. And he was right. He had me doing stuff I had no idea I needed to do coming from Seattle. But I did…[Read more]

Well, that’s impossible here in the woods. Our garden was invaded by a bear the other day. Deer, coyotes, racoons, opposums, and squirrels. Even a cougar drops by every once in a while. Can’t see the horizon due to trees and overcast skies word.

That’s pretty cool with the Comet. I remember Halleys when it came around, that was pretty spectacular. We can’t see the current comet with all the overcast skies and I think we are not in the zone to see it for some reason. It seems we should be but maybe not. Cool but dry so far today word.

You too. Almost over the hump for the week word.

GOOD Morning AC – Glad to see you back word.

Wow, I’m sorry to hear that. What a terrible week. I hope your wife is doing better now. I have a friend that had kindey stones and he was pretty rough for a little while. Watching TV he had to turn it down when commercials came on because the increased volume irritated his stones. Kind of weird. I really hope things get back to normal…[Read more]

Offensive coordinator also. That was a good solution to the floor burn. Lost my voice over the weekend and haven’t been feeling up to par for about a month, a slow burn. Close to pneumonia but not quite there yet thank goodness. I’ve had enough of that word.

Yeah, Alabama didn’t look good this time!! Holy smokes!!

The tree had been topped but was still alive. It was gnarly all over. Maple – hardwood. We don’t burn because we have high ceilings and the room never heats up. We even bought a fireplace heater which is a form of grate with tubes and a fan and the heat from the tubes is blown…[Read more]

Yeah, Atlanta got hit hard. Asheville NC got hit really hard I hear. Spent last saturday cutting and splitting a tree we felled last week. That wore me out. Hard splitting. I’ve never had such trouble splitting wood. So I rested watching the Alabama Georgia game. Great game especially because Alabama won and are now #1 word.

mspart

Yeah Helene spreading her joy word.

That’s a cool story. Thanks. We are going to see Camelot tonight at the local playhouse. Have a great weekend word!

When I was in college, we learned quickly that we could go to a concert, stand outside, and very soon after the band started, a couple would walk out and we would ask for their tickets. They said sure. So we saw Journey that way. There were others we saw that I don’t remember right now. I saw a number of concerts at college, Elton John…[Read more]

That is a great story. You witnessed history in the making word.

Gibbon’s voice was not on for sure, but he was playing guitar pretty goodly. They were fun. My wife even noticed the 15 string bass the new guy plays for a joke. I’ve seen pics and read about it. They did it for a joke. First song was played on that and we never saw it again after that. But it is pretty funny looking.

I have to say,…[Read more]

The ZZ Top and Lynyrd Skynyrd was a great concert and the weather held, so it was really nice. I liked ZZ Top, but Billy Gibbon’s voice is really rough now, could barely hear him. I thought Lynyrd Skynyrd just tried too hard, but they played well too. However the guy that took Gary Rossington’s place had his guitar turned down to much. I’m…[Read more]
