Fantastic Friday and Wondrous weekend eve Montana, Roy, Bud, George, Tim and all the Cowboy crew.
Hope the Fridge arrives and installed quick. I am looking into one of the larger RV units that runs on propane as a backup when we get the back room floored, sealed and a real room.

I don't need filters..... Need to find a way to bypass the filter. The fridge is supplied water from a Reverse Osmosis (RO) system. I have a large system in the basement that feeds both fridges, special faucet at the kitchen sink and the bathroom sink downstairs.

There are also fridges that run on 12V DC. A 12V DC compressor.

Late night..... already after 2300 hrs.....

The new fridge arrived. Installed and a problem with the controls/display was noted.....
The fridge was running, just no display. Ekland's sent over a repair guy in about 30 minutes..... Found a loose connector in the display. All fixed !!
Buying from a local full service appliance store already paid off

When I got home tonight, the fridge section was already stocked. We will stock the freezer tomorrow....

HD shift went well. I do it again Saturday.......

Dinner is done. Having some sliced strawberries before hitting the sack.........

Morning Sailor. The new fridge should have come with a filter bypass element. There wasn't one in mine but directions give you a form to send to GE to have them send one to you.

Good morning Cowboys!

Roy, glad the fridge is in and working.

We have had rain for the last three days, not solid but rain non the less. It has been a great spring I think. I do feel bad for my neighbor that just cut his Alafa and it has rained on it every day since. Starting the day today at 62° and sunny.

Evening Montana, Roy, Tim and all the crew.
Roy, Glad the refrigerator install went well and the display fixed. No rain here after about 0500 and none expected until Monday.
Tim we do need the rain but I hope all the dropped hay here today gets it in the barn tomorrow. I also hate to hear about good Alfalfa in the fields and can't get it in for the rain. Hope it isn't all a loss!

Morning Sailor. Nothing like a batch of $$$$ to remedy a falry fridge. Tim, too bad about your neighbors alfalfa. Sure can't be used for hay now. Maybe silage?
Roy, the rain sure isn't letting you complete the TT is it ?

Sensational Sunday morning Montana, Roy, Bud, Tim and crew.
Rained last night and maybe storms this afternoon, we will see.
After moving my Buddy, I am taking the day off and doing some domestic home chores!

Good morning Gents..... Cowboys and Patriots too......

I slept in today ..... Missed the church service..... Naughty boy
A little time on FTE and then it is TT work time.....
Yesterday I did get the leak in the underground sprinkler pipe fixed...... If it doesn't rain today, I'll turn it on this evening.
The lawn tractor quit..... Seems to be a fuel problem. Good flow thru the fuel filter..... I pulled the carb off, cleaned it..... I'll put it back on the engine today and see what happens.
If it isn't one thing.... it is six....
The HD shift went well yesterday, had a good time.

63°F & 48% humidity..... 15+ mph winds..... supposed to rain early afternoon..... We'll see......

Thanks for dropping by Bud, Rod, Tim, George and .......

See ya'll later.... time to turn-2
