Evan you comfortable pulling wire and working in the panel? And you may still need a permit.
The extent of my home wiring experience is installing new light fixtures, outlets, and ceiling fans.

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else.
Made to the VAMC and got that stuff out of the way. Then went to Stevens Marine, West Marine, Cabela's then on to Salem and Sportsman's Warehouse, Denny's and Costco. Finally made it home just a few minutes ago.
Time for some Pie and Ice Cream.

Morning Pat, and all to follow. About to take off from work and head up to spend a few hours with my Mom. She lives in LaCenter WA. so it's a good drive and I have to make it past that parking lot called Portland.

Good (Forest Fire) smoky morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else.


The direct route from North Carolina to Oregon.....On 07-30-17 I ordered some boat stuff from Overton's - North Carolina. They had a special going for free shipping and a 20% NASCAR sponsor race day special discount.
I have discovered that the free shipping was via FedEx and FedEx has apparently forgotten where Oregon is. They sent it to Kennewick Wa., from Salt Lake City, instead of going to Tualatin (where many other FedEx Packages we have tracked have gone), who sent it to Kent Wa. instead of Tualatin, Kent sent it to the USPS for directions and instructions (I guess), USPS sent it back to FedEx in Kent (with a map of the PNW?) and Kent finally got it to Tualatin (Portland for those not familiar with Or). Tualatin FedEx sent it to Salem. Salem FedEx sent it back to the USPS in Salem who got it to Sheridan inside about 90 minutes per the tracking times and it now sits in our local post office waiting for our mail women to ring it to us this morning. Definitely the 3rd stringers handled this shipment.




0630 this morning, about 20 minutes after sunrise...

It's comical to see how things get shipped and wonder how they can make any money at it...

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Made it to 86 before it started going the other way.

The package arrived via USPS around noon today. When I explained the trip it made to our delivery gal she joked about the USPS bailing FedEx out quite often when they screwed up and sent a package the wrong direction or were way over the estimated delivery time. Not really true but we had a good laugh over it.


Anyway, the new 4 'spoke' wheel is here along with the new anchor line for the anchor winch and a few other items.
