We had a guest this past week. Marina came down for a couple of days to visit Atlanta. Its been hot here in Duluth just like everywhere else it seems. The AC broke down just as the temps got hot (of course-- not because of pessimism, but things break under pressure.) It was a combination of problems and it actually broke twice. The second time I had to drive into Atlanta to get a new capacitor for the blower motor. I dont know how people cope by totally relying on service people. But then again my repair skills don't scale well. They are a matter of pride, nevertheless.
