That would be...um...no. Possible light snow tonight, possible 2-3 inches Saturday night, and another 2-3 on Monday. This is really starting to get old.

The weather is a little "unsettled" here now, with sunshine and some strong winds. I was looking at a national weather forcast this morning, and the storm that is coming off the coast right now is gonna bring more snow and crappy weather your way the rest of the week. Sorry...............You get power to your shop yet?

I'm going to make some room in the service box this weekend for a couple of breakers. I spent 4 hours last Saturday figuring out what breakers control what lights/ outlets in the house. Got that all mapped out, so I can combine some of the circuits. A lot of them have next to nothing on them, so I should be able to make room for a couple of breakers, to run two legs of 110 up to the garage, and I'll put in a sub box up there. Once I get that done, I can get outlets put in.

I should get the genset back in the MH today, and it can head off to Seattle! About damn time..........Harley has been gone installing a new engine in a farm truck the last couple of days, and should be done today also. Hoping to get started on the mess hall Monday. We have a LLC meeting Sat, and looks like we'll be getting more responsibilities, and more money..........The port has "given" the base back to the LLC so maybe things can get back to normal around here.

Morning all.

Nice and quiet now, the kids are all off school so they're all still in bed.

Morning Allen. Weather is weird here also. I'm at 3,400 feet and I've got great expanses of sun, and then a HUGE cloud will pass over about 500 feet above me, then more sunshine. Strange.........

Not this one. It's going back in a motor home that has to be in Seattle the end of April so it can get loaded on a barge and head to Nome Alaska!

I've got another one that came out of another MH that I'm remodeling to work as a stand-by gen-set for my Vet buddy across the street. He is a "Ham", and runs an emergency system from his house.
