Came home after work and took a showerI washed off about a 1/2 pound of Polyvinyl ChlorideI am the Maintenance manager at a PVC compounder... We produce 1.2 million pounds a week, 6 million pounds a month..When a line goes down My Arse is on the line. Today, after 2 hours of down time, A $75 limit switch that none of my guys could reach was the cause.. I am skinny and long.Yep... "Boss" jumped in and got the task done. You all that use PVC pipe, hose, siding should thank me... LOL
I hit 4' deep today digging post holes for my greenhouse, and that's good enough for me! Hopefully the next four go well and I don't find any boulders. My wife found a couple of 3' boulders in the garden beds and is adamant they have to go. I'm glad I have a grapple that can get them out!
I mowed the yard at first light in prep to a hospital visit. Now, I'm still in our local hospital awaiting an ambulance to take me to Tyler for treatment for Pulmonary Edema. Wish me luck, if you please.

I got out of the hospital last evening and caught up on some medical and financial things today. After that, I watched Tennessee win a 13 inning softball game followed by an Alabama loss. Now, I'm watching GA Tech vs Duke.I must confess, I did take my scope sighted HW30S out to the patio and sent a few pellets downrange to the 30 yard spoons and targets. I'm feeling better today than I have in a month!
That's great news Greg. We were worried about you. Glad you're feeling better.

Removed the Carburetor from the '72 Chevy pickup, dismantled and cleaned it and put it back together. I was going to get a rebuild kit but it really wasn't gunked up, nothing was pluged up so I used an aerosol can of carb cleaner and put it back on. It had no spark so I had to fix a bad connection, and then it fired up and runs ok, it needs a tune up though. It idles good but has a sleight miss under load. It was good to hear it run again, I drove it down to the end of the road and back. I also cleaned the windows on the 1969 GMC and the 1972 Chevy.
