Good morning. Good, hot coffee and ph00 is ready too. You may need lots to wash down Scotties concoction. It's still prickly pear season, so left a big bowl of cut up prickly pear on the counter. Our loquat tree is overloaded, so left a bowl of those too. Also some yummy custard apple.

Getting ready to head out for a day's work at the orphanage. There is a Canadian work team there right now and they are helping to erect the supports for 140 big solar panels that have arrived on site and will be installed soon.

Ciao.

Afternoon, gang. Sorry didn't make it sooner - - been going - - going - - going. Friend suddenly in hospital - - surgery over weekend and not doing real well. Tires on the Caddie today. Wow, does it drive quieter and smoother without those Michelins on there. Nice.

Grabbing my ph00 and out of here.

Spent the day hosting 3 classes of 2nd graders. Toured the EOD, Fire House and a cockpit tour of a C-130. Their buses were late picking them up so I gave them a personal tour of a static RF4C and a RF101. Not one bit of work accomplished today but a win in my book!

FiverBob

Barely on the + side of zero. The weather guessers were way off on that one. The brakes on the wife's car were fine. There was a big rock caught between the rotor and dust shield. After breakfast, off to finish the brakes on the 01.

My LEGGS look at my LEGGS!

There, I feel better now.

FiverBob

Well, tell ya what, big boy. You may feel better but I sure don't after looking at your LEGGS!!!!!! So there!!!!!!!!!!................................

You are a mess - - - a fun mess. That one started my day with a chuckle.

Rushing around cleaning, sprucing everything up, getting ready for the influx tomorrow. Fun time. Put some coffee and ph00 on and made some hot chocolate for you that are freezing. The blonde made the most delicious rolls for tomorrow - - family recipe - - ummmmmm yummy. Had her make an extra tray of them and brought them in. Little butter on them and nibble with your coffee.

OK, off to my CHORES, as laid out by the blonde, for the day. Vacuuming, washing floors, straighten up my office (I think it looks great - - duh), do some minor trimming outside - - yard guys will be here today, so that will give them the lead. Off and gone. Have a good one and an early Happy Thanksgiving.

Good morning from Paradise. Paradise this week has been quite cool at night, but after the sun comes up, it quickly warms up to become very nice days. Hope that the rest of you up way north of me are not sn**ed in, underwater, sun burned or blown away. Ignore the LEGGS.

Coffee and ph00 is ready. The coffee pot is really gungy, but some of you don't like it cleaned, so just rinsed it, but it stinks a bit.

Been spending the last few days working at the orphanage that I volunteer at. They have an old large auditorium and all the overhead flood lights have just been converted from the old style power hungry ballast type to LED's. A Canadian volunteer work team came down and made the change. This is all a 220 volt system on 3 separate systems, no switches, but only 3 double breakers in the girls dormitory kitchen. A weird setup. Now that the power draw was down a lot I was asked to put everything on one breaker and install switches in the auditorium. Looked at it and figured that it was not that big a job and would not need much rewiring. I was right about the job not needing much rewiring, but totally wrong on it not being a big job. All the wires are in metal conduits mounted about 15 feet high. When the place was originally wired, they must have used whatever wire they could get. The wire size is OK, (overkill for the LED's) but they had no clue about color codes. A wire that starts as a white on the breaker at a junction box gets joined to a black wire and further on in another junction box gets joined to a red wire and then maybe that gets joined again to a white wire. Also, the power coming into the auditorium arrives in the middle of the setup and goes to each side of the building using different colored wires. Trying to figure out what wire goes where was a headache. All the work was done on ladders which I don't like! Anyway, job done.

Today be thankful, VERY thankful for what God and your country has done for you. Question; what are YOU doing for God and your country?
