Just an Average Week
 

Earthquakes on the island of Hawaii . . . major brush fires on Oahu North Shore . . . hurricane passes by . . . 7.5 earthquke in Peru generates a "tsunami advisory" . . .

How's things going in your neck of the woods? :book:

its alright

Not bad. No bridges fell.

Hot and humid, lazy and slow; typical summer doldrums.

Monday night, drove through the worst rain/lightning storm I've ever been in...wipers were on "HIGH" but didn't do any good...twice I had to stop and pull over into someone's driveway...10' in front of the car was the best I could do to make out what was there... :eek:

Then today, spent all morning and part of the afternoon removing over +200 gallons of DOWTHERM SR-1 Glycol/Distilled Water (50/50) mixture, then flushing the system, twice...then mixed in 60 gallons of SR-1 (straight) and another 60 gallons of distilled water...no leaks and I'm sick of the "sweet" smell of glycol...I've got "water wrinkles" on top of my "water wrinkles" - I may dry out by Friday, if it doesn't rain any more this week! :D

Howdy All,
Smoke from the Santa Barbara fire which started 7-4-07 keeps rolling through, and we are 150 miles from it. Temps between 105° and 110° which isn't too bad, but the humidity is a little rough. This is the desert and it is supposed to be a dry heat.

Hangnail. It was bad. Real bad.

We have a burn ban in effect......I guess thats the good part about the midwest.

Its very dry here. The farmers are saying it is too late for a good corn crop.

My entire woods is drooping.

Yesterday was beautifully cool. fifty nine in the morning, and a lovely evening to sit on the deck.

All of my grandkids and kids are in town to check out the new twins so it is pretty cool here that way too.

Much about the same.

After the Metamucil kicks in I'm fit to rassle gators.......

Lots of rain this weekend and took an awesome nap Saturday afternoon!!

The old diesel has an issue--- runs on after the car is turned off. Check vacuum lines, more than likely a bad vacuum pump. Luckily it has a Mercedes shop book. :wacky:

rain is here today, burn ban is lifted.

Of course the shop manual doesn't cover the vacuum pump. Just about everything else though!

It is raining really well here now.

I hope it is not too late for the corn crop.
