I have a 11K Honeywell generator. The weak spot is the auto transfer switch. It has to work every time. I went that way so it would start and run if we were not home. Almost all regardless of brand name use the same 2 cylinder gas engine. The 11 K also saved me from having to change out the gas pipes and regulator.
88 degrees yesterday, about the same for today.

Afternoon all. Busy here as usual. Rainy [actually sun came out] and 84 degrees.
Had a dry spell of 6 days without rain. Garden growing up a storm. So does grass and weeds.
Went to the farms Tuesday. Could not believe it. Was dry which includes some big mud holes in the path. Actually drove on the fields [not planted ket].
Collected a lot of ticks while finishing my new deer stand.
Friday, we dedicated the Veterans' Memorial here in downtown Rville.
Group photo of veterans in attendance.
The monument.
Remembering those who didn't come home.
Ray, MIL in facility now. FIL doing so much better as he gets rest. You did the right thing.
Have a safe holiday.

Evening all. Thanks Jim and other's but think I eihter need to get them sand blasted ( the rest of the cars ) or the humidity is getting to the paint and making it look like it was poured on ( not the ones you have seen but cars I did later which were not sand blasted. ) I have 3 green abd 3 blue I now need to redo also so It's hold off time I think. I'm looking at a sand blaster on line I may try and get I have a compressor but still will need to get a dryer for the line and filters. I hope to goto Michaels, or hobby lobby Friday when in Aiken and get what I need for doing the lettering and numbering, I have the stamps need a brayer and a piece of glass or something like that ( may stop in at lowe's or home depot and see if they have any scrap glass I could get. ( small piece about 4" x4" or in that area)
Been a real nice and quiet day was able to relax. we don't do the grill thing so I cooked my self a burger on the stove in a small frying pan, had potato chips with it.
Hope all had a good weekend talk toy ou all later

Good evening all,
USA! USA! USA! An AMERICAN driver won the 100th running of the 500! Great weather, great crowd, great atmosphere! Traffic into and out of the track was much better than expected. Got to see a Foyt car in P-1 for 11 laps and loved every second of it. Watched the race again when I got home and we are watching the Victory Dinner as I write. Did very little today. Went to niece's wedding on Saturday as well. Long weekend. I hope everyone has a good day.
Keep on training,

Hello there.
back to the grind tomorrow.
Sounds like everyone had a good weekend. Mine didn't go quite as planned. Saturday was ok. Grandson got 2nd on his old machine. Not so good middle of the pack with the new one. Need to take it apart and "Look Around " inside it next time there is a long enough break between races .At least piston and rings. Brady's tuning paid off. He trimed his ET by almost 4/10th of a second. 500 feet in 6.6 seconds.got him 2nd place.
Sunday went south when a "some assembly required " gas grill kicked my butt followed by rain.
This afternoon while watching the parade Mom had another TIA. This one was the worst that I've seen .Took her several minutes to come around .Meantime I got her into the Tahoe and headed to the hospital. They are keeping her for "observation". she didn't seem to come back all the way . Lots of tests scheduled for tomorrow.
Best get t sleep .
Prayers for those in need .

Aloha. Happy Monday, um Tuesday. Enjoyed the best weather for Memorial Day in memory. Highlight was wrestling the grill out of the basement and setting everything up. Prayers for your mom, Banks. Nice memorial, Chief. Tropical Depression Bonnie seems a little early for this time of year, Fife.

Good morning,
71 heading to 81 and humid here guys. Had just enough rain last evening to pop the grass and spike the humidity.
Spent a good part of yesterday prepping the rest of the south house wall for stain, then moved the lift around to the front. Got a lot of repair to do on the end tails but can get stain on the rest first. It was hot and humid out there and your in the full sun working there.
Banks, Prayers for your Mom.
Chief, nice commemoration for the fallen. Sorry to hear about your MIL having to go in a facility. Must be better for the FIL. I'm doing better too since Helen went in. Deer stand looks big enough to put in some comforts.
I took my very first ride on the new Gold Line light rail between here and downtown L.A. yesterday. Cost me 35 cents each way for Senior weekend fare. Went with my oldest son on his birthday. We had a nice lunch at a well known restaurant (Phillipe's) near Union Station and rode back home. Took about 45 minutes each way. Pretty crowded for a weekend. The next section to be built will come even closer to my house but I don't care if it ever comes. As it is I'm only 5 minutes away from it now. They are building a lot of apartments near the new line to capture more riders. It's not as good as riding a train but at least it's on rails.
