Summer brings new friends

Summer is here. I have the AC on occasionally, except for the zoom room, which the AC is on all the time I am in there. Since we had so much rain awhile back, the mosquitos are unbearable. I called for air support from a pest killer company. June brings new fawns in this area. We have two new ones in the back yard, learning about the world. There was a nice Pitts Special that showed up at the EAA 690 breakfast this past week. I picked up another traffic control device. I will add an appropriate relay and sell to someone with a man-cave or bar. Wisdomino is certainly keeping me busy. I am a professional networker now. A lot to juggle.

My sister in-law Mary Beth Dowdell (Grover) passed away this week. Some pics from April 2018. It usually isn't the nice stuff that makes us grow.

We were up in NY this week. I managed to get my new truck stuck pulling tubing on the solar hot water system, which I just decommissioned. The 4 wheel drive was not enough. The clay/sod topping of the land on the farm is really amazing at getting things stuck. My tires are also terrible at breaking the vacuum. Douglas got me unstuck with superior tires on his Land Rover and the judicious use of sand ladders. We found an old diner-style jute box in Frackville PA. I thought they were all gone.
