I would have loved to have seen that! I made a good score today. One of the base owners went to an auction and found something he thought I'd like and gave it to me today.

We now have a cool popcorn machine for the shop!

After the wife retires, and I get this 21-foot camp trailer fixed the way she wants it, we're gonna' do some traveling.

One of our destinations might just be an old radar base somewhere, just to see the shrine!

Then again, it might be the Corn Palace in Mitchell, SD!

Your welcome anytime Marv! I'll make sure the popcorn is hot, and the DVD player is warmed up!

Maybe the alcohol plant will be ready and I'll give ya a tour and a visit to the "sampling" room......

I visited the Bacardi plant in San Juan on time when a ship dropped us off.

You know it's to bad you didn't have the ability to geotherm heat the shop with the lift in it. Hey what about using solar heating on the roof to heat that sucker in the winter?

It's in the plans Rob. I want to put solar collectors on the South facing side of the roof of the main shop, and use it for process heat for my bio plant, then switch to heating the shop when I'm not using the bio plant.

By the way.........The base owners and I came to an agreement on the motor-pool today!
