Back South Again with More Projects

A lot of driving. I have forgotten how much driving is involved when on the farm. Everything is far. But I also had to drive up and back twice to Syracuse to pickup/drop off Angie at the airport and a business meeting for Wisdomino in Albany. Yeah it was a lot of driving for me. All and all it was about 4000 miles in three weeks. Early in the morning I decided to check out some auctions (dangerous). I ended up being high bidder on a 2015 New Holland Boomer 33 ( "hours unknown, does not run, may have problems, no key, no battery" ) from the State of Tennessee. I figured I could swing by Nashville and pick it up on the way to Georgia. And indeed I did. It was only a couple of hours extra, maybe 4. But, it was more efficient than going to Georgia and then back and forth to Nashville. Nashville is about 4 hours from Duluth. So I was looking at a 4 hour savings.

Chazd's (Charles Dowdell's) News Burps I took half a day off today to try and coordinate the new electrical service entrance disconnect, inspection, and connect. The way things are looking.

I believe there is opportunity. Finding it can be sometimes be tiresome.

weather.com - Local Recreation Page Jeff and I went turkey hunting on Saturday and Sunday morning. We did not get anything. I am moving forward on the new electrical service entance work. I am using a Square D load center in the barn as the load splitter between the barn and the house. It only has 8 circuits for the barn, but it has a load bypass feature that feeds the house service entrance. I ended up buying a whole spool of 4/0 aluminum cable at Home Depot. I need to take back what I did not use, about 190 feet. The 500 foot spool cost about $600.00. It is moving ahead. Hopefully I can get stuff buried pretty soon. It is a hassle trying to get around the ditches all the time.
