Looking good @Fat Diesel. Our house is at the top of the hill already, so we don't have that option. We have our pressure pump set to run between 40 PSI (turn on) and 60 PSI (turn off).

Water tanks, trench digging...... stuff that city people know nothing about. We are so blissfully ignorant with our government maintained infrastructure. You would be amazed at how many people don't even think twice about their power, gas, water, sewage. We just take it for granted that water is always coming, and that when we flush the toilet, it all magically disappears.

Thanks guys. The water pressure from elevation drop is 0.43 PSI per foot. I'm really hoping on having 30 PSI or more with a shower going. We'll see, I'll report back.

Yes! Happy Saint Patrick's Day! Green beer all around!

Today is also the 2 week anniversary from our second COVID vaccine. I guess we're "in the green" in that regard now too.

2 week anniversary from our second COVID vaccine.
Glad to hear that you're vaccinated, healthy, and safe.

If it matters to anyone who is curious, I've had 2 doses of Moderna. No side effects. I didn't feel any symptoms of illness with the 1st shot or 2nd shot. No fever, chills, headache, sore muscles, aches, cough, or fatigue. Just like several other people reported, I felt a little soreness at the injection site the next day. But I didn't feel it at all, unless I pressed on it and applied pressure. Otherwise, I had full range of motion with my arm. I couldn't feel a thing raising my arm, lifting heavy objects, getting dressed......I actually had to poke my finger on the injection to find the spot where the needle went in. But that was only for the day after the injection. On the 2nd day after the injection, I couldn't feel it at all.

Almost exactly the reaction both of us (me and my SO) had. Reaction was pretty much a nothing burger.

Haven't got my stimulus check yet, but when it arrives, I will take the truck in to get the heater fixed, maybe have the trans filter/fluid replaced, and the rear end oil also. And I forgot, Les Schwab says the brake fluid needs to be flushed, so I will have that done as well.
