Worked on DHs car this afternoon. I had lunch with his cousin and while eating I got a panicked call fro him "Sweetie! My car won't shift out of park!"
Got home and troubleshot. It is called "the pink thingy". Anyway. did a quick repair I found HERE and got it going again. I mean really Dodge.

Speaking of the greenhouse, I solved a perennial problem today.the tomatoes and tomatillos in the greenhouse get watered with a dribbler system (insert old man jokes here). However the water can't come from the well, that water is so alkaline it just kills plants. So we use water from the irrigation canal. The dribblers have been fed from a barrel on the deck which gives small water pressure due to about 3 ft of elevation. This system has been problematic since the day we built it. As soon as anything plugs the dribblers, the don't work due to really low pressure. I got a small 1/6 hp submersible pump at Home Depot today. I dropped it into the barrel and hooked the dribblers to the output hose from the pump. The dribblers work most excellently now with good pressure and reliable output. A dude at a pump shop gave me the idea about the submersible pump on Friday. Why didn't I think of this years ago?

Not dark here. Cleared off nicely. Storms all around us but we were spared the brunt of it.
Seems to be a pattern here...warm humid air pushed out by a low that creates the nasty storms followed by a cooler day, then more humid air...storms...clearing...repeat.

Well if that don't beat all. Sounds like you're in the same piece of Hades as I am.
Scotty, glad things calmed down a little.
