The recessed lighting really made a big difference and there is another hanging fixture going on the right side over his main bench.

I can say from experience that I know what it is like to work in the dark, lighting is really a great feature.

What, they don't pipe sunshine down to where you have to work?....................lol


Harley and I had a blank slate when we bought this building. It was never a shop, but was the base commissary. We've been rewiring everything all new in conduit. Multiple lighting circuits with zonal lighting. We can turn only the lighting we need in the areas we need it.

I would not do to good down there. I have SAD and need the sunshine to help keep the depression away. One of the reasons I live out here in the desert.

I wasn't sure how I was going to like it when I started just over 30 years ago but actually enjoyed my time there until they started making so many stupid changes. I do have to take vitamin D because of the lack of sunshine though.

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Just getting home. Was at the VAMC in Portland all morning. They said I should continue paying my taxes so I guess we are good for the next 3 months in that particular area. Warden was mumbling under her breath, but I was a smiling happy camper.


Stopped at Cabela's in Tualatin on the way home. The generators they had on sale and one of the things I wanted to look at were too large and too noisy for my purpose.


I was a very good boy while at Cabela's. I only bought one cammo ball hat and one electronic 32mm reflex site with 40 reticle combinations. Oh yes, one box of 9mm +P Corbon 115 grain "Controlled Expansion Point" bullets.


The Warden came back and caught me so the Henry 40 Big Bore and the M1A Scout went back on the shelf.
